Flying green - green action #13

Picture
Hi!


I am very excited to be in New York next week!
Gonna visit some people that are interested in my work. Cannot tell you all the details yet, but you'll be the first to know, promise!
The only thing that is not exciting is the missions.... I fly with Air Berlin this time and could offset the emissions via their site, but I wasn't sure how much emissions a flight from Dusseldorf to New York is.
So yesterday I did a check at the website of "Trees for Travel" (http://www.treesfortravel.nl/) where you can compensate your flight emissions.
I was shocked!!! It is as much as I will use up in an entire year!!!!
look at the graphic here:

Note: It says it will take 1 tree to grow for 264,5 years to offset the emissions I use taking a plane, ai! 
And take a look at this graphic: according to the distance you travel you should pick a means of transport...
(source:  http://1bog.org/blog/infographic-the-greener-way-to-get-there/)
So, since I will travel over 2500 miles, my best green vehicle to get to New York would be :
the bus!

Right... 
Not so much, crossing the Atlantic.
So offset the lot & here we go!

Hi!
Goed nieuws, goed nieuws: ik ga vrijdag naar New York!
Er zijn daar mensen die geinteresseerd zijn in mijn werk en willen samenwerken. 
Helaas kan ik nog niet alle sappige details vermelden, maar ik hou je op de hoogte!!!. 


Het enige dat niet zo goed is aan de vlucht is het vliegtuig.... Ik vind vliegen super, maar het is niet bepaald 'groen'
Via de site van Air Berlin (met wie ik vlieg) kan ik dmv bomenaanplant de uitstoot compenseren, maar ik was toch benieuwd hoeveel die uitstoot dan precies zou zijn..

Dus keek ik gister even op de site van "Trees for Travel" (http://www.treesfortravel.nl/), 
waar kan je de uitstoot berekenen en compenseren.
Shocking!!!  
EEn keer op en neer veroorzaakt bijna net zoveel uitstoot als mijn gehele jaar!!!!! 
Kijk maar op de plaatjes hierboven.

Ai! En dan die opmerking over 1 boom, 264,5 jaar... hoei...

Volgens de grafiek rechts ("The greenest way to get there"), maakt de afstand uit, welk voertuig het groenst is.
Dat wordt voor als je meer dan 2500 miles reist de bus
Ehmm.. 
Ja.. die doen het niet zo goed over de Atlantische oceaan..
