Are there aspects of your daily life that you know contribute to your carbon footprint but you are unwilling to compromise to change them? In other words, what about your life is “off the table” when it comes to carbon emissions? It's OK to admit it- we all have these cherished behaviors!
Off the Table? >
I want to lessen my travel, but that simply won’t happen...
I wish I could live without travel, it has such a huge effect on the climate. Airplanes are particularly bad for the environment. In my life Airplanes are used a lot, my family likes to travel particularly by plane. I don’t we ever realized how bad for the environment they were, but we have now become so reliant on air travel to get around that I don’t think we could live without it.
Maybe a solution to this could be drive when possible even when not the most ideal way of transportation. I really feel travel is an important thing to happen, if people travel relations with other people/nations may improve, but we may have to find alternatives to this issues because if everybody takes multiple flights per year our emissions will skyrocket, and we can’t just wait for planes to become more efficient.
Does anybody else feel this way? Anybody else have similar reliances on the air travel?
