I love road trips, have since childhood. As a fellow Gen-Xer, I have a few epic road trips notched into my belt. And though pre-9/11 plane travel was a fun adventure, it's just torture now. Interesting to see the carbon calculator. I share your annoyance with privileged elites lecturing us little people on climate while they jet about the world. I've turned into a certified homebody in middle age, which is better for the planet anyway, but your post has me dreaming of the road, if only for auld lang syne.
Definitely hear you on the homebody thing. Pre-COVID, we had to travel a lot for client on-sites, and it doesn’t look like we’ll ever return to that after 2 years of Google Meet kickoffs. Can’t say I’m too disappointed.
