We should feel guilty. Especially for any flights that are frivolous. We should also feel guilty for our excessive meat consumption, our excessive usage of cars, and for all forms of waste. And we should continue to feel guilty until we resolve the problem. China has a population of 1.4bn people[1] and produces 10.87tn tonnes of CO2 per year[2], whereas the US has roughly 25% of the population[3] but produces 5.107tn tonnes of CO2[2]. We in the developed western world need to take drastic steps to reduce our impact, and then encourage other nations to do the same. [1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China
