    Hey, maybe when the rich (who fly a heck of a lot) start getting a little uncomfy we can actually do something about that climate change thing.

      Haha! Ahhh yeah. Fun to think about but no, we’re way past that.

      However, private rail might make a comeback.

        The rich go international more than most. And boats are a heck of a lot slower than planes.

          You’re right, but once we’re feeling effects of that magnitude we’re already pretty much screwed. We’d need long term corrective action, and basically manually reverse all the damage we’ve done. it bought as well be teraforming at that point.
