France has banned short-haul domestic flights. How much it will help combat climate change is up in the air
Paris - France has passed a law banning some domestic flights and encouraging travelers to take the train instead. Under the new law, flights that can be replaced by a train journey of under
two-and-a-half hours should be scrapped.
The ban on short-hop flights became law on Tuesday. However, France's national airline had already canceled three routes that were deemed too high on carbon emissions.
All three went from Paris' second airport, Orly, serving Bordeaux, Lyon and Nantes. Those three cities are all on the country's extensive high-speed rail network, and taking
the train is also far faster than flying there.

Climate Change has become a cult of the Left.
