Ban All Commercial Flights On Sundays

Closed 50 signatures

What the petition asks

Take the lessons learnt from the inflicted global shutdown to benefit the planet and prevent further global warming and pollution by banning all commercial flying on Sundays.
The Coronavirus is a global tragedy, on all levels personal, social and economically. However, we are already seeing the incredible benefits to the environment.

What mustn't happen is for Covid-19 to come, kill, destroy and leave without us learning from the tragedies that have occurred. Lets recognise the benefits of global shutdown on the environment, how it's helping heal our world and make changes for the better. One day a week of no commercial flying would allow the planet to breathe.
