It can make approximately 52 quintillion versions of the film. About 100,000 flights jet Around The World every day. Flying accounts for 2. 5 of all carbon emissions. Now, that might not sound like much, but if aviation was a country, it would be among the top ten most polluting nations in the world, and its impact is expected to rise.
