Your TV And Radio Programmes...
Now come with carbon footprint information...
Oh dear...
There is a programme on the BBC World Service that talks of environmental matters and a lot of it is very interesting. I have said before within reason I have no problems with trying save the Earth's resources(after all it is all we have got)It is finite. But equally you can become too precious.
Another programme on the same station and also broadcast on BBC Radio 4 has been looking at what the Oceans could offer mankind in the way of food and medicine but it has been made it clear the problems will be trying to use this precious resource properly and not just for profit and not to exhaust what is available and if used to do it responsibly so as little damage is caused as possible.
So the programme One Planet at the end of each programme tells us(the listener)how much travelling the team has done, studio time and taking into account other things that are not defined. The last programme the presenter said had created/used 415kilo grams and for the first three programmes the running total is 1.91 Kilo's.
I cannot help it but I am afraid my eyes glaze over when I hear this...

I won't tell you my "flights included" carbon rating then!
btw IF I ever get to buy a new car I will go out of my way to avoid all the crap the car manufacturers are spoon-feeding everyone about theri 'new' green this, that and the other.
I think that they are probably obliged to mentioned that Span but I wonder how may passengers are avoiding certain flights or bothered.
All that matters is how safe the plane is and the carbon footprint matters most if it only means that having a better reading means that the plane is more efficient and therefore safer.
You may fly for pleasure but most of the time I suspect you fly because of your work and the distances mean that flying is the most convenient for time and money.
Very true Gildy, and 95% (+/-) of my flying is business. Definitely mor eefficent and safer (in US currently and Brazil next week)
