How big a carbon print does the pope leave behind every time he flies in that chartered Alitalia Air Bus airliner all over the world?

Why is the carbon footprint of the Pope’s plane?

Or did he buy his carbon credits with Al Gore?

It’s not going to do any good until China and India jump on board. They’re the biggest ocean polluters in the world.
