climate care

Fly on a return trip to Cape Town, South Africa and you are responsible for over four tonnes of aviation emissions of carbon dioxide gas. Considering the number of the flights in the air at any one time this soon adds up. To help reduce the effects on climate change the Climate Care Trust has been established. Funding projects that reduce CO2 levles in the atmosphere, Climate Care's aim is to make your flight 'climate neutral'. For more details or to make a donation please contact us, or log on to their website at:
