First things first, we know, air travel is not an environmentally friendly form of transport !

That said, we try to do our bit at Travel Nation. In the office we re-use and re-cycle stuff where possible. We also make an annual donation to the World Land Trust (www.worldlandtrust.org) who save rainforest to offset the carbon dioxide emitted by our share of the flights all of the staff here take each year and in the production of energy consumed by our office.

If you want to make a donation to the World Land Trust to offset your share of the Carbon Dioxide emitted by your aircraft, check out www.worldlandtrust.org/carbon/
As a rough guide, a round the world trip in economy class would cost between £25 - £50 per person to offset, more of course for business and first class due to the additional space used up.

Message from Sir David Attenborough on the World Land Trust site :

"I welcome WLT's new Carbon-balancing programme as a way of helping put back what we are taking away. I would urge everyone to think deeply about what is important in life and to consider the consequences of daily activities. Balancing your carbon emissions with the WLT means that we are able to put even more back in to our key objectives – acquiring land for conservation."
