International travel is back. Is that a good thing?

  • Resumen

  • In the first season of Heart of Business, we talked a lot about travel. We had wanderlust, but we were trapped at home. But now that we're able to start getting back out there, should we?

    Tourism alone accounts for 8% of the world’s carbon emissions. On a 2500 mile flight, just one passenger’s share of emissions melts a square foot of arctic summer sea ice cover. But tourism is also 10% of the global GDP. Local communities and supply chains rely on that money. But again, not all of it is going back into those economies—70% of all money spent by tourists in Thailand leaves Thailand; 80% from the Caribbean.

    In this episode, Sam mentions some resources for purposeful travelers. Here they are:
