| NOT TRUE... If you look at a common european airplane (here a airbus 321-200) it uses 0.031 liters of fuel per passenger per kilmeter. The max distance for this airplane is 3000 km. So if you take the longest flight possible(3000km) each passenger uses 93 liters of fuel. One liter of fuel weigts no more than 1 kg/liter (it's less then this). So if we IMAGINE that if ALL the fuel is turned into greenhouse due oxidation (which is way too much, example: some of the fuel condeses[turns into water]) that would meen that if each passenger max causes 93 liters of fuel, one passenger would cause a max of 93kg of greenhouse gasses per passenger. NOT 400 KG! Keep the planet clean, and keep it real "planestupid" |

| I'm sorry, but, this is just too grim to watch. I know this whole advertising strategy of shock tactics can be effective but who really wants to watch a load of polar bears falling to a series of disgusting deaths? Are they really expecting people to feel positive about saving the earth after seeing that brutal display... I think not! |

| How did you manage to get the longest flight possible being 3000KM? Wouldn't it be closer to 6400KM? |

| What a stupid ad, with so many false presumptions. And ham-handed to boot. |

| considering the world polar bear poplation now stands at between 20,000-25,000 and has been steadily increasing since the 1970's, this would seem to be a pointless advert and factually incorrect |
