To think soon it won’t be socially acceptable to fly

[Pigletspal]

I’m sad because I’ve been saving up for 6 years to go on holiday. I want to go to South America and Southeast Asia next year. I’ve also just got a job with a decent wage and I have been looking forward to much to making holidays a regular thing.

But they’re about to get more expensive aren’t they?

And suddenly I feel guilty about wanting to fly. One of my friends has already said that she will be going on “one last” foreign holiday and then stopping due to climate change.

And I really want to save the planet too. I’m just sad that it’s all going this way.
Am I overreacting or shall I get used to the idea my travelling days are numbered?

I wonder if it will stop people moving away for work? At the moment, or until recently, you could hop on a plane but that is all changing

Yes not In my wilder moments. I think that the whole world is in thrall to the production of oil\plastics. Woe betide any culture trying to 'green' their industries because the profits of that industry would be affected and therefore pensions too etc etc.

Hence Trumx's denial of climate change. And the no hope for real change.
