Traveling by air polluter.

a phrase that we hear repeated spessoin Italy c even years a message on the back of the congratulatory train tickets for choosing the medium that involves the lower nellambiente CO2 emissions, when compared to aircraft and autoeppure continue to use the airplanes flying today 300 km per cent of which were flying in the nineties.
The problem we talk about CO2 emissions often a somewhat obscure or abstract to explain why fly so much a problem.
For this, the fundamental view the meaning in a very practical way of these values, comparing them to more tangible things, such as the consumption of a country (or more countries) or, even better, as the ice is melting at the poles of the planet.
If we select a section intercontinentalecome from Milan to Seoul, Korea Sudil number of countries where the annual per capita CO2 emissions are less than 1,633 kg CO2 dallaereo products to reach their destination in 72 rooms.
In other words, go and visit the land that gave the world the K-pop polluter than live for a year in Colombia and Nepal, consuming everything that consumes a person in the media and produces CO2 equivalent.
Another effective compared to see the extent of the estimated aereoche traffic, only for Europe, up 42 percent by 2040 ice.
To be precise: the square meters of Arctic ice that melts as you into the atmosphere of greenhouse gas concentrations increase.

In red, right, the amount of emissions produced by a Turin-New York flight.
To the left, the column of activities necessary to offset those emissions in a year.
ShamePlane also offers a tool to calculate what behaviors we should take to balance the CO2 emissions from the selected flight, and within the limits of procapita emissions that were established by the Paris Agreements of 2015.
For example, the Turin-New York flight, which produces a total equivalent to 2.5 CO2, can be tied in a year, eating only food at zero km, using only LED lights, recycling all recyclable, becoming vegetarian and reducing the food waste altogether.
But fully compensate for even alluded would require giving up the daily log.
That's a lot of compromises for a flight alone, but that's the point: to rethink the way we travel to be aware that taking a low-cost flight the last minute to get the weekend in Lanzarote someAction not without consequences for the environment.

Inspired just ShamePlane and Another series of art projects, data and research analysis, the Milan studio dotdotdot has created an interactive exhibition entitled Paradise Travel Symposium for the festival to be held in the Dolomites 4 to 7 July to 2019.
The installation-game invite everyone to plan an intercontinental journey, and constatarne the environmental impact, it focused on the direct connection between aviation and climate change, as well as stimulate a discussion on ways in which we communicate the problem.
(Although the topic is known for some time, many of the people who played were quite surprised with the results of their travels.)
So we must stop flying?
Well, for sure it would help.
At least for the next holiday, we can choose a destination accessible by other means, and, of course, insist because travel by train, at least where possible, is always the most advantageous from an economic point of view, efficient and safe.
