Original Note:
It is misleading to claim in the video that 'the first net zero trans-atlantic flight' is now 'taking off'. The flight emits more carbon than it stores. The government says carbon credits will need to be purchased because the flight is not net zero. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-67548961 https://www.imperial.ac.uk/news/249753/worlds-first-transatlantic-flight-100-sustainable/ https://www.gov.uk/government/news/worlds-first-net-zero-transatlantic-flight-to-fly-from-london-in-2023#:~:text=The%20use%20of%20100%25%20SAF,make%20the%20flight%20net%20zero.
