Letter to the I: Green Flying Letter


I disagree with my fellow Bristolian Marian Connolly.  While it is important to tackle climate change, it is folly and morally wrong to expect people to stop travelling abroad by plane.  We should not begrudge the fact that more people can afford to see the world.  As Mark Twain once said the biggest killer of racism and ignorance is travel.  Instead we should direct our world renowned aerospace industries to construct fuel efficient and alternatively powered aircraft. Instead of rejecting technology we should be embracing it.
