Having taken both a ship and a jet from the US to Europe and back, I can tell you the jet is better.

It's an incredibly selfish and particularly planet destroying way to travel.

Are you sure?
Has Flying Become More Eco-Friendly Than Driving?
Consider that if the jet fuel were carbon neutral,
Norsk e-Fuel in Norway
Flying would emit zero new CO2 per passenger mile traveled!

Prove it by quantifying its impact ?

This is simply an attack on our western freedoms nothing more

"western freedoms" aka rich white privilege.

And yes, it is an attack on rich people who think they can destroy the planet simply to take selfies near distant tourist sites.

If they wish. Or bicycle. Walking is great. Motorcycles get 60+ mpg if one wishes go to long distances. Lots of options that don't destroy the planet to the extent air travel does.

Please describe in your own words how air travel, or any type of CO2 emissions will “destroy the planet”? If you could support your ideas with some peer reviewed publications, that would even be better!

Sorry, thanks for clarifying: the planet will be fine, it will just be generally inhospitable to humans. I apologize for seeming hysterical.

Can you show any peer reviewed publications that says CO2 emissions will render the Earth uninhabitable?

Since when does inhospitable = uninhabitable?

Motorcycles may get twice the mileage, but the pollute the atmosphere more, because they don't have effective emission controls.

Do you believe every whack that claims the world is ending?

The end of times appears to no linger be Bible related. Now it's the religious cult of AGW pushing it.

Until someone proves these catastrophic predictions are real, they are no better than any other doomsday chant.

Is that like the same Western WEF Davos 1% whos emissions are double the entire lowest 50% of us, yet still feel able to lecture us 'little people' on our lifestyles whilst indulging their lavish lives of luxury ?

Their hypocrisy is in charge now via the 'Great Reset' and its nightmare vision for us 'battery chickens' to be exploited bought and sold down the river entirely for their benefit via vastly over hyped climate change dogma .

Prepare to get a lot poorer with the UKs test case ongoing
