Although it brings humanity together, travel across the globe by plane surely takes its toll on the environment.

Air travel may contribute as much as 4% to global CO2 emissions each year. See how much this mode of transport affects the environment based on your personal usage. In theory, the longer the flight the better per mile for the environment, but there are more environmentally friendly ways to travel.
