But NETs are #greenwash ⬇️🤮

This is a wake up call that has been ringing for years. We need to act NOW to stop burning fossil fuels & that includes curbing aviation, one of the fastest growing sources of warming, by all means necessary: taxes, caps & limits, alternatives & absolutely no new expansion 🚫✈️

🛩️ Evidence shows there is a gender inequality when it comes to plane travel and who bears most responsibility for aviation emissions

Marginalised groups contribute less to the climate crisis and yet suffer far more from its consequences

Stay Grounded Network @StayGrounded_net@mastodon.social · Sep 11, 2023

The tourism sector's dependency on aviation is fuelling the fire of the climate crisis

But a small proportion of the population is responsible for a large proportion of the devastating climate impact of this destructive dependency

It's time to reimagine tourism 🌳 ☀️
