Save the Environment
Whopping 50,000 pounds a year!
50,000 pounds – that’s the amount of CO2 the average American generates each year from electricity use, car exhaust, heating, air travel, and the consumption of energy required to make food, clothes, electronics – you name it! This equates to roughly 140 pounds for every person, every day.
One of the greatest contributors to this growing problem is the carbon dioxide generated from aircraft. With the number of airline flights skyrocketing worldwide, aircraft emissions are becoming the number one threat to environmental pollution. According to the Royal Commission on Environmental Pollution, emissions from planes are expected to become the largest contributor to global warming by 2050. Just one commercial jet in flight from New York to Denver generates between 840 and 1,660 pounds of carbon dioxide per passenger – comparable to what an SUV generates in a month!
