Did you know that business travel contributes 3.5% of mankind’s contribution to global warming? A typical jet emits roughly one pound of carbon dioxide for each passenger mile it travels. A roundtrip between New York and Los Angeles creates about 3 tons of CO2 per passenger that’s approximately 400 tons or more for a typical fully loaded 737 aircraft. According to the National Business Travel Association, U.S business travelers average 240 billion passenger-miles annually.
