Saving the planet, one EMWA conference at a time

Author: Adam Jacobs

I had been a frequent business traveller for some years until not so long ago. Most of my trips were by plane. I would typically fly to some destination or other most months. Then COVID came along, and in March 2020, business travel suddenly stopped. It took a while to get going again, and my first international journey after that was to the EMWA conference in Berlin in May 2022. Having had that little break from travel was no bad thing, as it gave me the chance to pause and reflect on my travelling, and, in particular, on the climate impact of air travel.
