That is no reason to stop telling people to use travel (air, car, etc) sparingly. People still drink and drive - and they always will but that doesn't stop us from telling them not to. We don't need to convince everybody to stop air travel in order to make a positive impact. If I accept your argument then we should do absolutely nothing to curtail our impact on the environment since we will not be able to convince everybody else to do the same. We are individuals and must each choose how we help or hurt the environment.
