Good idea. Let's all sail down to the antarctic, on a boat that probably consumed a fair amount of fossil fuel in it's construction. Better make sure there is a rescue ship available in case of bad (climate change generated?) weather.

Perhaps not, we'll walk to see Kilimanjaro instead, should be an easy stroll across the Sahara desert, then we can stroll up the mountain, accompanied by a few dozen porters to cope with our large party. we can bury all the days' poo, or are we going to bag it and carry it down again?

Oh bugger, just book some Easyjet flights and do it the usual way.

The only one of these I've seen is the Dead Sea. And even that was by flying.

You'll be pleased to hear we got our come-uppance: it was 2010 and we got Eyupwotsitjokulled! On Cyprus!!

Your spell checker has an error, Eyjafjallajoekull (Mine flags it as an error too).

What an extraordinary exercise in irony! So the unrestrained ability to travel at will to these places has nothing to do with climate-change then?

Some of them do have the makings of an interesting expedition though, if one was to use the transport methods EM specifies.

Good man, no doubt many here spotted that - but elsewhere?

Well, I was chatting to a guy on the Eastjet flight to Tenerife the other day, and he felt exactly the same way. (Just kidding! )

Actually, i did post a comment alluding to the irony under the article itself. Haven't gone back to see if I've been flamed yet!
