KiloBravoUSMC just booked her trip to England to visit her Mum. Along with booking the flight on-line, the usual offers for Car Rental, Hotel Reservations, etc, were offered. Then this:

Offset the carbon emissions for these flights

You can help minimise the impact of your flying by offsetting your carbon emissions. The total carbon emissions from your itinerary are 1.886 tonnes and the cost of offsetting your emissions is $ 55.48.


Your money will go towards UN certified emission reduction projects.

Please be aware that once your carbon offset contribution is paid, it cannot be refunded.

#1  Virgin Atlantic has been doing this for over 2 years. I used to put my change in the little envelop to help UNESCO and UNICEF. Not anymore. This PC, leftist BS has gone to far. Stay out of my conscience.
