For this week’s Speaker Programme, we were visited by Helen Coffey who is an independent journalist who specialises in environmentally friendly travel. She spoke to us about her pledge to not use planes in order to reduce her carbon footprint. She described her slow travel experiences in which she took long ferries, boats and trains. We learnt about how it is possible to travel within Europe in a way that is environmentally conscious. Overall it was an engaging and interesting talk and we are hoping to see her again!
