Taking a greener holiday was among today’s carbon-diet advice in a two-day feature run by the Times. UK holiday makers have increased carbon emissions by 85 per cent since 1990 by flying abroad. Taking a cheap flight to Europe is deemed a carbon sin compared with the same journey made on emission-friendly trains. Flights from London to Paris or Brussels generate ten times more carbon dioxide emissions than taking the train, according to independent research for Eurostar.
