What would that percentage be if you say the flights are for pleasure? What is the percentage figure a percentage of?

My share would be 260% if my flights were for pleasure. It's a percentage of my share. I guess if I use more than 100%, I'm using more than my fair resources that impact my carbon footprint. My footprint would exceed a sustainable level.

So one can change their amount of emissions (measured in kilograms) by a significant amount by giving them a different name? Sounds absurd, does it not?
