Yes, I think we all need to take the environment more seriously. It's now July, it should be the warmest time of the year. Instead I am sat in my living room with a jumper on, and I am walking around outside in a waterproof jacket. For the past two years we've had torrential rain, floods, horrible dull weather during June and July, yet no one has mentioned, especially the media why the seasons seem to have changed here in the UK. People do not care because it doesn't affect them right now. @ Jessica

I think it goes further than bed linen and bath towels, for example how many of those hotel rooms did you arrive in had all of the room's lights turned on, tv and other electrical equipment on stand-by. The point I am trying to make is that the travel industry might care, but what is it actually physcially doing. Nick points out what he's doing for his travel agency, which is great, I'd like to learn more about what other areas of the industry are doing. @ Nancy
