It has never been easier or cheaper to fly !

Do you think nowadays .... travelling abroad is taken for granted?

Especially that air travel is choking our world faster than any other form of transport !

SHOULD people be making these weekly business trips abroad? Or making 2-3 family holidays abroad each year?

Each time you fly, you contribute to global warming by releasing CO2 and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Should we be paying an excess to balance out our travel emissions?? (This money would be used to fund projects that absorb, reduce or avoid an equivalent amount of greenhouse gases -don't ask me how 😆)

- Does that sound fair? Or do you really not care? (that rhymes 😕)

I don't like to travel by airplanes. Get claustrophobic.
