Do Just One Thing
A lighter suitcase has a huge impact on your carbon footprint when you fly. A recent study shows that reducing your carry-on by just 15 pounds on a 10-hour flight equals a reduction of 80 pounds of emissions. Multiply that by 150 people on your flight who do the same thing, and that’s 12,000 pounds saved. Some tips to lighten the load include wearing versatile pieces that can also be hand-washed easily. Bring only travel-size toiletries and the essentials; if you need something at your destination, buy it, don’t bring it. And leave heavy items like books and extra shoes behind.
