UK: Eco worries not affecting travel plans

Eco worries not affecting travel plans
Concerns about the environment are not having an effect on the travel plans of most people from the UK, according to a recent poll.

Thousands of Britons enjoy their holidays in Spain each year and their travel habits are not being adjusted as a result of concerns about the contributions their journeys could be making to carbon emissions.

Most people are worried by the prospect of climate change but even so-called green taxes designed to deter travellers would be unlikely to deter Britons from taking their families on Spanish holidays.

It'll take a lot for people to not go on holiday this year. So much despair is around, so it's only logical that people want to get away and ignore the problems.

Perhaps next year, the climate may be different and change where they're going. I hear a stayvacation is the thing to do!
