Any thoughts about flying to conferences and climate change? When do you justify it for yourself and when not?

@borkdude My approach: Being conscious about it. Calculate the CO2eq emissions for the flights and set them in context. Honestly evaluate alternative options like combining it with holidays to avoid another flight, alternative transport, not going etc.

And not forget that avoiding a flight-trip won’t save the planet. Actions which have multiplication-effects matter much more.

@kommen Any good calculators that are more objective than the numbers you see from flight websites?
