Travel Shouldn’t Cost the Earth

Discover how to explore our beautiful world sustainably and responsibly with these two new books from authors Emma Gregg and Nina Karnikowski as part of Aye Write 2021!

Travel Shouldn’t Cost the Earth

About Travel Shouldn’t Cost the Earth

Award-winning travel writer Emma Gregg’s The Flightless Traveller, presents 50 inspirational, life-affirming trip ideas for those who would like to fly less, or not at all. They include eco-friendly city breaks and coastal retreats, bike rides and sailing voyages, short jaunts on vintage railways and incredible intercontinental journeys. Nina Karnikowski will be joining us virtually from Australia to talk about her book Go Lightly, a sustainable travel handbook which inspires readers to explore our fascinating planet without causing it further harm. Her advice includes how to choose the least impactful methods of travel, how best to protect wildlife, how to pack with more consideration, how to implement mindful practices into each travel day, eco-friendly activities including biking, boating and camping, and introduces us to some of the world's most inspiring eco-adventure pioneers.

*This performance is live/pre-recorded and will be available to watch for three weeks after the broadcast date to accommodate different time zones.

This performance is included in the Aye Write 2021 festival pass, so you will not need to purchase this event if you have already purchased a pass.
