Five years of no flying
✈️ ❌ ➡️ 🚅 ✅
5 years ago, I realised that my #academic travels were emitting way too much #greenhouse #gas #GHG (up to 20 t #CO2 / yr) and hence that my #professional activity was not #sustainable. I thus decided to completely ban air #travel (#plane) and travel mainly by #train within #Europe.
5 years later (i.e. now), my professional travels' #carbonfootprint dropped by **a factor 50**, without impacting my #publication records (compared to 2017 - 2019).
I wrote a post for the #blog of nostr:npub10kawg8cw8d02cpafdkfp7td8z3csqxxlx5738rqplxun05ke5d5s0ua2ph about my experience. Check it out: https://astronomersforplanet.earth/five-years-of-no-flying/
