It would be if they take some effort to support it.
Aviation industry is responsible for 2.8% of global emissions, but it is portrayed as the villan. Btw, Boom Supersonic is looking into synthetic fuels to stay carbon neutral.
Cessna Citation produces 6 tons for every 3 hour flight. Lets say, there are 3 people each flight. So 2 tons per person per flight. If someone takes the private jet _every day of the year_, thats 700 tons. Still a far cry from 100,000 tons from a small town.
