Air Travel and the Environment
I am no longer excited about travelling for a variety of very valid reasons. But I think I may have just found a good excuse, as well.
One particular part of the article that caught my attention is this:
Air travel
“Green” travellers are boycotting air travel because of climate change. Campaigners have staged sit-ins at airports while hundreds of people have signed up to an online pledge set up by a veteran environmental campaigner. An estimated 3 per cent of people have stopped flying to help the environment, while 10 per cent are cutting back on flights.
