Fixing everything, really slowly

Happy new year all!

I’ve just offset all the carbon emmisions from my flights last year (London to Florida for work, London to Madrid for work and London to Croatia for holiday). You should consider doing the same. I used carbonneutral.com and it was easy and informative. They explain it far better than I can:

One single shorthaul flight produces roughly the same amount of the global warming gas as 3 months worth of driving a 1.4 litre car. And we’re all flying more.

You can’t do much about the fuel efficiency of aircraft, but if you need a holiday or if you’re travelling on business, you can help reduce your personal contribution to global warming by making your flight CarbonNeutral. That means we organise for the CO2 associated with your flight to be ‘balanced out’ by forestry and climate friendly energy projects which save equivalent amounts of CO2.

Now if I could only find the courage to claim the offset costs for the work flights
