Fly away - be free like a bird - change the climate?

On the way to Croatia, summer holiday

Sunset high above the clouds. How can seeing such a beautiful thing be so harmful to humans and the whole planet? A cognitive dilemma.
We fly around the globe to discover untouched nature. And we kind of conveniently forget that we harm nature in doing so. Often we produce a greater carbon footprint than a whole year’s personal allowance needed to keep the climate safe.

To keep the climate safe we need drastic cuts in air travel. This is very well in theory, but it is not always that easy in practice. It means to adopt an alternative life style.
