Trains over Planes report says disruption to commuters would be minimal. Banning flights on routes with fast rail connections could cut the UKs emissions from domestic aviation by a third, a report has found. The report by the thinktank Intergenerational Foundation (IF) found that domestic aviation was responsible for the emission of 2.7 megatonnes of CO2 in 2019 alone the equivalent of the annual emissions from 1.7 million petrol cars or the energy to power 700,000 UK homes for a year.
