While I agree about dumping carbon up there, Dubai is Emirates' hub, so people going from anywhere in Asia to San Francisco and vice-versa have connections flights at Dubai.

Few people have it as a destination. Most passengers will be Asians visiting family in the US or going home from the US.

Idk, the travel we all take for granted comes at a price. I don't want anyone to not see their family. But global warming is here, it's a bitch, and it isn't going to get fairer. Al Gore said it best, it's an inconvenient truth....
