Fly less/ don’t fly

Fly less or even quit flying although their. For longer journeys and holidays, let the train take the strain! It is amazing how far you can travel both in the UK and across Europe by train (and ferry) and there are an increasing number of sleeper trains allowing you to arrive at your destination in time for breakfast with a whole day ahead of you! 

If you plan to ski this winter in Europe, plan ahead and take the train.

Why not make a flight free pledge? https://flightfree.co.uk/
