it's a interesting fact that when you look at it: eviromentalists have only one thought when they speak about saving the world and that is themselves.

In other words whatever they do is only for themselves and not for the world!

Range Rover Blues:
Well Concorde burns a tonne of fuel per seat, about 3 times the amount a 747 burns on a similar flight, so about 360kg of fuel per seat per flight and most of that goes dring take off, Concorde burns over a tonne getting down the runway, don't know about the 747.

So a family of 4 going on their holidays, that's 8 seats worth (2 flights) or about 2,900kg of fuel for a week in the sun.

That's near £3,000 for us motorists.

Range Rover Blues:

You've forgotten to add in the difference in seats 747 has more seat than a concorde therefore cost is a lot cheaper than you state

They are not using fuel any more and it wasn't cattle class that most people use when going on holiday
