@giulio_mattioli This is a huge part of why electric trains make sense, even for long distances such as Australia (Where I am) and America.
Sure, the overhead lines are expensive to build and maintain for long-distances but there's ways around that: For example combining the overhead wiring with the long-distance power lines we already need to run for long distances anyway for the power grid.
@giulio_mattioli And this is why airline executives should be facing the same #Nuremburg process as fossil fuel executives. This is genocide, and they know perfectly well that it's genocide.
But they're happy to destroy the future of the whole human race to earn more billions in what remaind of their lives.
For the rest of you, never fly again.
