I love to travel, but don’t really feel the need for a lot of big trips.  We have done a lot of the big parks out west, which are awesome, and a little bit of international travel.  Still, some of our best memories as a family are simple vacations to OBX, Cape Cod, Canaan Valley…etc.  [/quote]

If you have traveled a lot, it’s easy to say you don’t need to travel much anymore. Some of us didn’t travel at all as kids and young adults and are making up for lost time. If you already got yours, great, but many of us didn’t and we aren’t going to stay home because all the people who got to travel before us polluted. [/quote]

I wasn’t saying not to travel.  We are flying overseas for spring break.  My point was we need to really start thinking about our actions and their impact.  How much is too much?   To a hardcore environmentalist, my trip overseas is indulgent…and it probably is.  Somebody’s 4000 square foot home is frowned on.  I’m not casting stones.  Most of us are guilty of over consumption to some degree.  I worry that we are not leaving the earth better than we found it and future generations will say “what were they thinking.”[/quote]
