Later this week I am flying to France, and now that Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajoekull is starting to calm down, it’s a certainty that I’ll be going. Over at Information Is Beautiful, they posted an interesting graph about how much CO2 is pushed into the atmosphere by both the volcano and the airline industry. Based on the graph, I wonder what the environmental impact would be, if 4 days a month were no fly days world-wide. I have a feeling that the world would reduce CO2 emissions by a number far greater than 206,465 tons.
