    Who is this PRATT Tony Juniper?
    Dosn't he realise its the people who cannot afford to fly on his bloody plane in the first place who are going to suffer the most!
    The carbon cap crap plane is already dropping debris on the heads of the less well-off in the EU and elsewhere through green taxes.
    When the plane crashes its our homes and lives that will be destroyed!!,not the Al Gores of the world.
