Why using palm oil to make jet fuel is a climate disaster:
🌴 Deforestation, 🐾 Wildlife Threat, and 💨 The Emissions Paradox: When you account for land-use change, this "sustainable" fuel can actually produce more emissions than traditional fossil fuel.
We are being told that so-called 'Sustainable' Aviation Fuel (SAF) is our magical ticket to "guilt-free" flying. But did you know that "green" jet fuel may contain illegal palm oil?
👉 The Bottom Line: Whether it's fossil fuel or SAF, the amount of CO2 coming out of the engine is the same.
If you thought private jets were just for humans, think again.
Meet the latest trend in luxury flying? We're not joking.
💰The cost? Upwards of £10,000 a seat.
🌍The real cost? A single long-haul flight for a dog can emit more CO₂ than the average human produces in an entire year.
Who’d have thought a fossil-fuel shill like Trump would be the one to spark a green revolution? writes George Monbiot
The US attack on Iran has made the need for renewable energy inarguable. Environmentalists are now being seen for the pragmatists that they are

Frequent flyer programs have turned travel into a high-carbon game. "Winning" means flying more to earn... more flights. In a climate crisis, that’s a pretty weird game to be playing.

Bumprints is flying into San Francisco Climate Week (well, only virtually 😉), to break the silence on aviation’s enormous climate problem.
Join us to get the tools, the data, and the motivation to help change your flight path. Passengers aren't just along for the ride anymore. 🌍✨

Did you know?
Every night, aircraft contrails create artificial cloud blankets that trap heat into our already feverish planet.
This 'blanket effect' is considered to be as warming as the carbon emissions from the aircraft's engines.
#Sustainable #Planet #Carbon #Aviation #Contrails
Don't be misled, the aviation industry constantly downplays its contribution to global warming. Remember that 80% of the world has never flown, but aviation emissions, generated by the privileged minority, are huge and growing.

A bold new social movement to help passengers addicted to flying is being launched today in New Zealand.

'AirHeads Anonymous' (AHA), loosely modelled on Alcoholics Anonymous, is open to anyone in Auckland who is concerned about how much they, or their loved ones, fly.
If you can't imagine your life without frequent flying, read more about the movement in our blog: bumprints.org/the-flying-h...
Making choices we can feel good about is getting harder and harder. Do you find yourself apologising or being apologised to? Or are you struggling somewhere in the middle like the team at #Bumprints... 💚
Let's face it, none of us is feeling great about the state of the planet right now. We are all on this journey together, slowly coming to terms with a reality different from the one we grew up with, and yes, Lisa, it really can be awkward!

If you’ve ever looked at your bumprint and thought,
"This is far too small. I really need to up my climate impact."
Then, White Desert has the perfect itinerary for you.
They call it "The Greatest Day"🙌 ; we call it outrageous! 🤯

“Warplanes, drones & missiles kill 1000s of people, level infrastructure & turn the Middle East into a gigantic environmental sacrifice zone. First analysis of the climate cost found the conflict led to 5m tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions in its first 14 days.”

No wonder Tanya's feeling guilty, her 'Flight Count 2025' is enormous. Luckily, she already had lots of ideas about how to make sure her bumprint for 2026 is much smaller!
