I didn't take any flights for almost 4 years, ending a couple of weeks ago.

1. Flying emits vastly more CO2 than equivalent train journeys, and even one flight is a huge proportion of your total carbon emissions. If you care at all about the climate, you should at least be aware and mindful of this.
