I agree with much of the article but.. Dude, go on holiday. Billionaires and corporations make up the vast majority of emissions that are driving climate change. See the world before the rich end up destroying what's left of it. You're allowed to enjoy yourself.
I know all that but I honestly don't need to. Most of my time is spent inside anyway. Sometimes I take the train and spend a weekend some place nice but that really is all I need.
Probably on a per capita basis but we are all contributing to climate change (the majority of it): https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/global-greenhouse-gas-emissions-data
Do you have a source?
And we have to stop thinking vacations and planes are the same things. I've gone to awesome vacation places by train, car and even boat. You can still take vacations without it being a problem for the environment, just don't take the plane
