My wife and I consciously chose to stop flying in 2009 around the time we were married. Prior to that we had traveled a fair amount individually and really loved traveling, but felt that of all the things we did, flying was the most clearly impactful thing that we could change in our lives. Stopping flying has not been difficult, and has more than compensated for by the feeling that we are living in sync with our deeply held values. I say, try it. It’s not so hard. You’ll immediately feel better for making the change!
