“From the 1970s I was reading about climate change and realised it was the most important issue around,” says Dan. “The science is quite clear. For the developed world to have a reasonable chance of halting runaway climate change it needs to have a 100 per cent reduction in carbon dioxide by 2050.”

They are, they estimate, somewhere between 90 and 99 per cent carbon-free, depending on whether you count things like the fuel used by trains and the energy used to make tinned food.

When they made the decision to go carbon-free they gave up flying.

“Flying releases huge amounts of carbon dioxide,” says Dan. “There is no solution to this and since we don’t want to feel we are killing people while we travel, we don’t fly any more.”

Jane adds: “Our last flight was to see family in Canada about ten years ago. We came back by cargo ship.

“It took us a week. It was expensive – it cost about three times as much as flying – but lovely.”
