Original Note:
An 8-hour private jet journey emits roughly the same carbon emissions as 6 months of car use by average European, not a lifetime. "The average private jet emits two tonnes of carbon an hour. The average European is responsible for [emitting] eight tonnes of carbon a year" https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jan/26/flying-shame-the-scandalous-rise-of-private-jets
