To Travel Or Not to Travel, Now That Is The Question




The People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast show

Summary: <p>“If you could win an all-expenses paid trip anywhere in the world, where would it be, and how would you get there?”</p> <p>That is the question sent in by listener Jocelyne, from Grand Port District in Mauritius, and it fits in well with this podcast's overall themes of nature, philosophy, climate, the human condition, sustainability, and social justice. </p> <p>Where are the places you wouldn’t want to go to? Where are the places you would want to go? </p> <p>Co-hosts Stuart and William suggest the greenest way currently is often the longest way, and that is something that needs looking at by society. Though on an all-expenses trip, the method of travel, and route, is often baked in with little flex for the itinerary to be changed to be made more sustainable.</p> <p>They go on to say they themselves feel travel can very much be part of a holiday as well, and Stuart feels has been everywhere he’s wanted to go. So if won this trip being discussed, he’d give it to someone that he feels would benefit from the adventure more than him.</p> <p>On the other hand, if William won it, he feels he’d go to Hamburg, but insist on taking slower methods of transit. So train, ferry etc. Making the whole thing as sustainable as he could.</p> <p> This particular episode was again edited by Lukas Seifert, an Oxford University Micro intern, who worked alongside Stuart and William for a week on a variety of creative tasks, including the edit of this episode. We’d like to thank Lukas for his work, notably the high standard he brought to the role, great communication skills, and also the extra energy and impetus he gave us. </p> <p>What do you make of this discussion?
