Europe

I'm just back from two months in Europe.

First up, I want to say right away that in no way do I think that flying halfway around the world is environmentally friendly. That's around 8 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions, chickees. About as much as the average New Zealander emits in a year. Or, shockingly, around eight times one of the suggested annual quotas if you divide allowable emissions equally among the world's population.

However, since I needed to go the UK on family business, I was bound to be interested in thinking about environmental stuff while I was there, right?

So I'm going to share a bunch of posts on a tourist's view of sustainability in Europe.
