Interesting: In these two days the survey is on, out of 13 people who have responded not one has yet answered "yes". None of us has yet taken any action to use alternative ways of transport instead of flying and only two of us are considering this possibility.
This observation is not to condemn at all. I am pointing it out because it tells me something.
It tells me that this blog, "Eco-friendly way of life - The Ordinary Person's Guide to Eco-Friendly Living" makes sense. Many of us struggle how to incorporate our environmental ethical concerns with other interests, obligations and concerns we have in life.
The decision to cut down flying for environmentalist reasons really is one of the most hard ones because for some of us the cost is really high (because of the distances between places where we have social connections, jobs or studies). So further thinking, research and weighing the possibilities of action is in order. You will hear more on this sub-topic on this blog for sure.

Well, the most economical way - energy consumption wise - is to travel by water.
There should be some canals left in England, the ones built before the railway.
And the railway is the second most plausible transport.
I know, I know... Further research...
Just wait until atomic fusion will be "technologised" for practical use. Might take a while, though.
