Rough Guides: our position on climate change
Climate change is a serious threat to the ecosystems that humans rely upon, and air travel is among the fastest-growing contributors to the problem. Rough Guides regard travel overall as a global benefit, but we all have a responsibility to limit our personal impact on global warming and that includes taking the following two steps:
- Give thought to how often you fly. Take fewer trips - stay for longer!
- Offset the greenhouse emissions of your flights reduce the net emissions to zero.
Rough Guides offsets its own business air travel, and we encourage all our readers to do the same. We've teamed up with ClimateCare to make this as easy as possible. Using the calculators, you can quickly calculate and offset the emissions of your flights, as well as your house and car.
