One transatlantic flight is 3-4 tons of CO2

the average American is responsible for the emissions of about 20 tons of CO2 annually … If you fly to Europe and back from the U.S., you’ll add about 3-4 tons to your (already large) carbon footprint. With one flight you will have caused more emissions than 20 Bangladeshi or Indian will cause in a whole year. Unfortunately they are the ones who will lose their homes and livelihood once sea level rise inundates their low lying country.

But the rich people in india also responsible for same kind of CO2 emission as people in US. When taking average(80% of Indians are poor) total Indian CO2 emission becomes small.

To keep the temperature rise below 2 degree C, scientists suggests CO2 emission should be below 2.5 tones per capita. All Indian classes that earns above Rs 8000/- per month are already above this limit.

One thought on “One transatlantic flight is 3-4 tons of CO2

  1. Dear Sir,

    Our company is specialized in research and development in the field of environmentally sound technologies.

    Clear Air is our solution for carbon dioxide (CO2) emission reduction produced from the combustion of fossil fuels. Now available.

    Our CO2 Emission Reduction Technology called Clear Air, can be quickly implemented in the different fields of application including smoke stacks, and land-sea-air transport. CO2 emission reduction is done in-situ with an optimal reduction of 99.9%. This solution has not secondary polluting effect.

    Clear Air is an effective and relatively cheap technology, mounted behind the CO2 source.
    For example in a car mounted on the exhaust system it is capable to reduce the CO2 emission from 40% even up to 99.9%.
    In the case of passenger cars or heavy goods vehicle or large off road vehicles the technology of construction and manufacturing does not need to change.
    The Clear Air device can be mounted onto the existing parts of the vehicle.

    The Clear Air know-how together with a manufactured prototype is our property. The efficiency is measurable and can be immediately tested. Exact technology exists with computerized modelling for the CO2 reduction process and a controllable prototype equipment for use as well.

    The principle behind the CO2 emission reductions solution is part of a secret know-how. The intellectual property is offered for use by Licensing (Technology Transfer).

    The Environmental Unique Solutions AG. is delivering only technology and know-how for the Clear Air, in form of Customized Licenses.
    We do not manufacture and sell the device based on this technology. (More information at the site: http://www.eusag.ch/clearair.html )
