From an earlier post; air travel #emissions (per person) are much higher than travel by car.... but, to put that into perspective, here's a breakdown of #oil use:-
Transportation:
Road 44.6%
Aviation 5.6%
Marine 4.1%
Rail/Waterways 2%
Industry:
Petrochemicals 14.2%
Other products 13.2%
Power:
Electricity generation 5.1%
Other uses 11.4%
Not flying reduces #fossilfuels use bur we must also reduce our reliance road transport use!
