Side-effects of terrorism

Do terrorists targeting airplanes and airports help combat climate change?

While governments and the airline industry seem to pay only lip service to combating climate change, every time there is a terrorist attack, attempted attack or even just a threat airports are shut down and AIRPLANES DO NOT FLY. The security checks that slow flying and make other more climate friendly options of transport more attractive, are largely due to the threat of terrorism.

Sounds like an inconvenient truth...
