Friday 2nd March 2007 By the end of this century 182 million people could die in sub-Saharan Africa alone of diseases directly attributable to climate change. Give 50p for every flight you have taken in the last year. What's this in aid of? Count Your Blessings is a daily Lent plan to help raise funds for the work of Christian Aid. They chose the right year to include this for me - since I've been seeing HD the number of flights I've taken has gone up horrifically. At some point I'm going to do a post about carbon offsetting, as I've been thinking about it a lot (not to mention feeling very guilty about my carbon footprint). Thankfully once we're married (and living at the same end of the country) the urgency to fly will be massively reduced.
