contribute to an estimated 2.4% of annual CO2 amount globally. In addition to releasing up to 2.1 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions each year. Research has found that aviation also contributes 4% to human-induced global warming. At this rate, warming is to increase 0.2 degrees Fahrenheit (0.1 degrees Celsius) by the year 2050 as aviation continues to grow post pandemic. Although the pandemic put a pause in the emissions, the CO2 emissions from past flights are still playing a role in global warming. The pandemic slowed the warming rates by about 5 years. Of frequent flyers, there is an elite minority that is contributing to most of the aviation emissions. As of October 2021, the goal was to achieve net-zero emissions by the year 2050 within the aviation industry. Ghost flights alone are creating lots of environmental damage and account for yearly emissions equivalent to more than 1.4 million cars. If left unchecked, these emissions are a threat to the environment. References
