@lo_fye @greenpeace @mhoye Yeah, I'm not sure we all need to go so far for our holidays. I realise some trips are essential, but people go vast distances with quite poor motivation other than vague marketing.

@chiffchaff @greenpeace @mhoye No we don’t all need to, but some do. A third of my family is in Vancouver. A third in London England. And a third (including me) near Toronto.
