If you replace a short haul flight with a ride on a train you could easily cut carbon emissions by 75% Source

Interesting! Thanks for the source.
It looks like short haul flights actually produce 12% less emissions than driving.

That is mostly because those numbers take the average occupancy level into account. Cars are rarely driven with a passenger in every available seat.
