Boom! #supersonic aircraft are 5 times more polluting then regular planes

The dirtiest and noisiest ‘bird’ in the sky is back! Today US plane-maker Boom will preview a new generation of #supersonic aircraft for the super-rich at Farnborough airshow.

Backed by so-called “climate champion” Richard Branson, these aircraft are super polluting – potentially 5 times as much CO2 as regular planes.

Please share this post and say #NoBoom #FIA18!
