From the bushfires raging in Australia to typhoons and volcanic eruptions in the Philippines, 2020 has faced environmental devastation on a mass scale and we\u2019re not even into February yet.<\/p>\n

And while sustainability and recycling are the buzzwords du jour when it comes to everything from fashion to how you drink your coffee in the morning, carbon emissions from air travel continue to be one of the most destructive factors at play.<\/p>\n

Realistically, most of us aren\u2019t going to stop travelling via plane and embark on cruise ships\u00a0Titanic<\/em>\u00a0style to get us from A to B, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t do your bit to help either.<\/p>\n

Cool Effect<\/a>, a US-based non-profit dedicated to fighting climate change has created a free online calculator that allows you to calculate the carbon emissions generated from flights you have taken.<\/p>\n
