Troubled about having helped spread a casual attitude towards air travel that could trigger devastating climate change, the founders of the Rough Guide and Lonely Planet books are working together in urging tourists to fly less.
From next month, in all new editions of their guides warnings will appear about the impact of flying on global warming and alternative ways of reaching destinations are added. To read more on this click here.
On the website of the Rough Guide information about climate change is provided and you can calculate the CO2 emmisions of a flight you are considering to take online. With the Climate Care calculator you can calculate not only the CO2 emmisions of flights, but also of household and car travel and offsetting your carbon emmissions by supporting projects that reduce greenhouse-gas emissions is suggested. End of this year "The Rough Guide to Climate Change" will be published.
