When I worked there only the French rugby supporters with a near empty fuel tank and minimal luggage 747 could take off as runway was to sort. I think the minimum runway length for a fully loaded 747 for take off is about 2200m, Edinburgh is around 2500m. I would imagine that AF1 is fitted with more modern, powerful engines so could generate a lot more power and speed on take off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJ has just given the green light to a coal mine, new drilling licences off Shetland, lower tax on internal flights so people fly from Manchester to London etc etc etc at the same time as voting to dump fresh shit into all Englands waterways. What a complete ****ing waste of everyone’s time. No debate from me on this. Though the aim and sentiment is laudable, The whole thing is and was only ever going to be a bad pantomime. With the carbon footprint of all attendees, especially their modes of travel, it might as well never have taken place. Why not hold it all online?

Lone Striker Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 We're not hearing anything about how the UN are going to "punish" those countries who don't even come anywhere close to achieving what they say they'll achieve by the date they say they'll achieve it. Specifically, Brazil - they've signed up to the 2030 target to stop net de-forestation. Does anyone think they're serious about this ? If the world is in the last chance saloon, are the UN ensuring that all new green technology blueprints gets shared freely among all countries ? I could be wrong, but isn't the WHO ensuring that Covid vaccine technology is being made available around the world ? An irony of all this is that if the majority of us ordinary folk make significant lifestyle changes (like reducing travel and reducing the amount of pointless sh1t we buy), guess who'll get the credit at the 2030 COP ? While still being bombarded by advertising campaigns to get us to travel more and buy loads of pointless sh1t. 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer is apparently we need to stop living as consumers and start living as citizens. We need to downgrade our standard of living and start leading simpler lives. I'd welcome that. I'd like to think lockdown and surviving with less money and activities has made others welcome that too. Less chasing false material dreams, driving around countries for work and instead working locally and in a meaningful role for your community with a good work life balance and living a less materialistic lifestyle and instead taking pleasure from enjoying time, hobbies and the company of others instead of a fancy car, clothes or bigger house you're never in. Maybe the 'the great resignation' is a sign people are ripe for change just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
