One single shorthaul flight produces roughly the same amount of the global warming gas as 3 months worth of driving a 1.4 litre car. And we're all flying more.
You can't do much about the fuel efficiency of aircraft, but if you're travelling to a volunteer program, you can help reduce your personal contribution to global warming by making your flight CarbonNeutral.
The Carbon Neutral Company organises for the CO2 associated with your flight to be ‘balanced out’ by forestry and climate friendly energy projects which save equivalent amounts of CO2.
The CarbonNeutral Company is one of the world's leading climate change businesses, helping thousands of people and 100s of major companies around the world, to assess and tackle their CO2 emissions.
Vets Beyond Borders think this is a fantastic idea and encourage all members and volunteers to reduce their carbon load on the planet.
