Sustainable travel: What is the future for travel?

Dust off your crystal balls and look to the future of travel: bikini beach holidays in the Baltics, sewage-powered flights abroad, and rail miles instead of air miles? Our sustainable-travel expert <a href="https://twitter.com/JulietKinsman" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Juliet Kinsman</a> talks to <a href="https://twitter.com/Jonweeks5" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jon Weeks</a> about how extreme weather is already impacting ski resorts and island retreats, how eco-laws can help us help the planet, and why cheaper renewable energy should leave us feeling optimistic about the future. Plus, the Evening Standard's Lifestyle Director, <a href="https://www.standard.co.uk/author/suzannah-ramsdale" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Suzannah Ramsdale</a> reveals the beaches slowly getting shorter, why a rise in demand for cruises is a bad thing, and explains why she thinks the UK is the destination of the future.
