New research that indicates that the carbon footprint of flying is worse than previously thought is creating a new phenomenon called "Flight Shaming" (making those of us that fly a lot feel bad about our choices). Beyond how you choose (or not) to alter your mode of travel, how will this impact your destination?
If you are a destination that depends upon flight, this could, obviously, have some ramifications. Indeed, there are companies in Europe that are banning their employees from flying in-continent. If you are, however, a destination that derives the majority of its visitors from ground transportation, how will you respond...without being predatory?
With 1 in 5 consumers flying less because of their climate concerns, this is going to be a thing. How we respond will be interesting.
So there IS something to Chemtrails!
If anything it would hopefully encourage local tourism. That's something we want to do. How do you tell your potential customers leaving for a warmer climate to stay home? I think escaping the cold will always trump saving the planet.
