Like last year, this summer is proving uncertain for international holidays. But can UK trips be just as good, and even better for the planet?
When going abroad, the most time effective mode of transport is usually by plane. You’d probably expect flights and cruises to have higher greenhouse gas emissions than trains or buses, but did you know that the aviation industry is responsible for 2% of all global carbon emissions? To reduce emissions, train and bus transport on shorter routes seems like the answer, and therefore UK-based travel is the way to go.
