An Open Letter to Airlines

How about letting me use my frequent flyer miles (of which I now have a few) to buy trees instead of more flights?

Yours &c.
Ben

    That is an excellent thought and I wish that would have been the case. It seems people in our generation are more focused towards technology that destroys nature than the one that preserves it. We are losing species, culture, and ozone in our atmosphere at an exponential rate.

    Ben,

    I take it these trees you want to buy are for the purposes of building wooden aeroplanes. I like the sustainable thinking :-) -there could be some mileage in it.

    Best of luck this year with your plans.

    Very rad idea bro. I'm on a Liberty Medical Scheme roadshow at the moment. Just not the same without you…!

    BRILLIANT! Ah, but have you sent this noble idea to the airlines themselves? I'd be curious to know their response(s) if you have.
