Fossil fuel-powered aeroplanes release soot (a deep black powdery or flaky substance) and other pollutants into the atmosphere. Which causes global warming. 1910
Aeroplanes produce greenhouse gases, caused by burning fuel. The greenhouse gases help to contribute to global warming when the gases are let go into the atmosphere. 1913
Aeroplanes operating at high altitudes near the tropopause can also release chemicals that interact with greenhouse gases at those altitudes, particularly nitrogen compounds, which interact with ozone, which will lead to increased ozone concentrations. 1914
Aeroplanes cause noise pollution mainly caused by aircraft taking off and landing. The 1920s- today
Most modern airlines are made out of Aluminium, which is made from Alumina and Bauxite, which are harmful to mine. The 1920s
Aeroplanes are about 3 percent of total global climate emissions. A single flight produces three tons of carbon dioxide per passenger. The 1930s
Most light piston aircraft burn avgas, which contains tetraethyllead (TEL). Some lower-compression piston engines can operate on unleaded mogas and turbine engines and diesel engines. The 1940s
Air travel accounts for only 2.5% of global carbon emissions. The 1960s
