Low-Carbon Holiday and Travel
Relax with a drink and a friend, and share your low-carbon living ideas and tell what you have done to help fight global warming.
Holiday and Air Travel
carbon-info.org
Air travel is the fastest growing single source of CO2 emissions. We fly more than ever before, and it is having a devastating effect on the planet.
Relax and avoid short car journeys
25% of all car journeys in the UK are under 2 miles. A lot of these are necessary, but can be done by other means of transport.
Carbon-info.org believe that walking and cycling should be considered as two very healthy alternatives to car travel, which does not contribute to global warming and climate change.
Relax with a friend and a tree
Growing trees naturally absorb CO2 from the atmosphere, and help combat Global Warming without any side effects.
Tell others about your success!
Carbon-info.org recommends that whatever country you live in, you should consider taking a holiday in your own country. Driving a few 100 miles is far less CO2 intensive than flying 1000 miles in an aeroplane.
Spend a day every month planting a tree. This is relaxing and fun, and will provide a great learning opportunity for any children in the family.
If you want to plant trees, but do not have the time or space, plant a tree through The National Forest, who offer this service at little cost.
