To be fair, according to Jean Marc Jancovici, a specialist in energy, private jets only account for ~1% of the air travel emission. Mass air-travel has much more impact on the environment than a few private jets. Also, a big chunk of your average trip is for the middle class to go to all-inclusive hotels on the other side of the planet. But Jancovici still pushes for private jets to be banned, so that it sends the right message.

To be clear, I still think that commuting ~2,000 km in a private jet is being really privileged and incredibly out of touch with reality, especially if you run a company with some green washing. I just wanted to put things into perspective. The top 0.1% definitely are heavy polluters, but the global north also has to change its habits, regardless of the top 0.1%.
