Devil's Advocate, since I agree they should just meet virtually... arguably there are maybe 10,000 people globally that decide most things regarding climate change. If those 10,000 people flew to one spot and agreed to enact policies that alone did 3X more in a decade than all individual choices of citizens could ever do, wouldn't that be worth it? We know what individual citizens do regarding their lights and food and transportation habit is a small, miniscule piece of what the companies and governments actually can do, so I think it's a little pointless to tell billionaire CEOs and heads of countries with billions of people that they can't take flights to go make climate policy stronger. Those few flights would occur anyway, we can't stop them, and meanwhile they may be enacting changes that could clean up millions of future jet flights.

Sure, and they could fly first class on commercial to get to that meeting. But they have egos and don't think restrictions apply to them - but ohh this is an "emergency," isn't it?? I thought we were having all hands on deck to stop climate change, right? We're all going to starve and die.

All for one and one for - nah, never mind gas up my second leer jet, Jeeves!
