Flying Lighter
Since AgeEsteemers are among the millions of travelers who fly, I can’t resist sharing this information concerning efforts being made to diminish costs, economize on fuel and eliminate as much CO2 as possible.
Each pound that can be avoided saves money and energy. Companies like Swiss Airlines has introduced what they call ecological piloting, reduced the number of spoons on board, and is looking to install lighter seats. All Nippon Airways has a different approach. They ask passengers to go to the restroom before embarking in order to lighten the load for takeoff!
