SEE THE WORLD AND KILL IT
Airtours is offering Britons a 23 day, 32,000 kilometer, 10 stop, £4,499 planet-killer of an around the world flight:
As environmentalists were quick to point out, they will also emit a staggering 2,289 tonnes of carbon - equivalent to the weight of 286 double-decker buses.Thus a whole new area of toruism opens up, the environment polluting holiday. I wouldn't mind taking a flame-thrower to one of those carbon laden Siberian peat bogs that's going to thaw out eventually anyway. Sounds like fun.
"This must be one of the most polluting package holidays possible," said a spokesman for Friends of the Earth yesterday.

Well, I think all this traveling for fun is just unconsciounable. All travel ought to be restricted for the necessary and important meetings of environmentalists, who must travel all over the world on a regular basis in order to protect the rest of us from ourselves.

Carbon? Do aeroplanes' engines burn a bit rich, or something? Or have the clowns in The Grauniad not understood that carbon is not the same as carbon dioxide?
