A new poll shows that a shocking number of French citizens support banning people from flying more than four times in their lives due to climate change.
A poll from research firm Consumer Science and Analytics Institute (CSA) found that 41% of citizens would support such a limit. That number rose to 59% support among 18-24-year-olds. The suggested limit, proposed by engineer Jean-Marc Jancovici, would apply to air travel for business and pleasure.
The poll surveyed 1,010 French residents over the age of 18. It found that support for air travel restrictions was far higher among younger age groups. While a majority opposed the four-flight lifetime maximum, 64% of the respondents said they would be willing to limit their air travel in the near or medium term to combat climate change.
Climate activists across the globe have pushed for wide-ranging restrictions aimed at reducing carbon emissions, from limiting car travel to banning plastic straws.

BS poll. Mostly young marxists.
Just consider your travel as one long trip. Lots of stops and lay-overs.
I’m good with French people not flying more than four times a year. 🤷🏻♀️
Fighting climate change by allowing you to only fly four times in a lifetime? Radical warriors pitch the move!

BIDEN ADMIN BEGINS ENFORCING NATIONWIDE LIGHTBULB BANS, IGNITING BACKLASH FROM GOP: ‘LIBERAL FANTASIES’
THAT WON’T FLY!
Does this idea of 4 flights include the current fad of connecting flights?
None of those surveyed could probably answer any questions about climate change and whether it’s a new phenomenon or made up or has been happening since the beginning of time. Heck most scientists would not be able to answer those questions without their biased opinions.
So, a consensus about climate change from the ignorant and uneducated public, is complete nonsense.
That would do wonders for the Cruise industry. Is Viking Cruises sponsoring this poll?
Exactly.
Yes. Or at least the Western Europeans. The two great Slavic nations are fighting each other to death in a stupid war. So that may be it for Eastern Europe too.
I’m all in on not flying any more so can I sell my four allowables?
My wife & I, one son and two siblings are not flying again.
We can start a thriving business selling unused flights..
Europeans don’t need to fly anywhere. It’s a small place. The Euro-peasants can ride in a horse cart anywhere they need to go. That’s why they are going to be put in those 15-minute cities.
EuroPeons should not be allowed to pass gas, break wind, etc.
Do they mean only 4 flights on PRIVATE JETS? Or are those people exempt? Asking for a friend.
Have surrender monkeys developed a plane that flys in reverse? Should probably focus on that Pierre.
Four connecting flights, lifetime limit reached, sorry, you’re now such in Cincinnati or Dallas, Detroit, or Buffalo. That’ll make your day.
Someone will come up with an offset so the rich can buy poor people’s four flights.
This is why I don’t give a crap whether rootin’ tootin’ pootin takes the whole continent. The euros are Freedom hating scum.
Wonder why this post left off the “..to Paris?”
Climate change BS. A science teacher told us about it in junior high, presenting omit as a theoretical, which it is, 50 years ago. Since then the tide line hasn’t moved an inch.
Now. When we think of the euros yes they have fallen for this hook, line etc. That said…
When they give up air travel they’re talking about coming here. Their train system makes ours look like the trolley system through our local zoo. It’s not the same.
