PRIVATE FLIGHTS COST THE EARTH Despite claiming the majority of flights are for business use, research shows that most Farnborough flights are heading to holiday destinations. Whilst most private jets are up to 14 times more carbon intensive than a normal airliner, these larger private jets are up to 30 times more polluting. #BanPrivateJets #TaxFrequentFlyers #MakePollutersPay Greta Thunberg, the Red Rebels, and 60 rebel drummers led a march of hundreds to the main gate of Farnborough Airport on Saturday 27th January, brandishing banners and setting pink smoke flares ablaze to demand a total ban on private jets at Farnborough Airport. The powerful procession, organized by XR Waverley and Borders, even featured the iconic Extinction Rebellion ‘Greta’ lightship. *** We are rebels with a cause - advocating for truth, justice, and the protection of all life, using non-violent direct action (NVDA) to highlight the need to upgrade democracy and create a future decided by us, not for us.
