A lot of them don’t work and some might even be harmful. But there are things you can do if you really have to fly.

No one has to fly. Luckily 7 billion people don't, or the ecological and climate mess would be even worse. Flying is the new climate denial. Know it's bad and do it anyway, impactoary denial.
A good first step would be recognising the difference between needs and wants
