How’s this for hypocrisy? It turns out that, despite all their preaching about everyone doing their bit to tackle climate change, the Department for Energy and Climate Change have been flying all over the UK on journeys that could quite easily have been done by train.
Apparently, their staff took just under 1,200 domestic flights, including 26 return flights to Manchester. A journey that can be done in two and a half hours by train or a little longer by coach. Surely they could have lift-shared at the very least?
