Never in human history has travel been so accessible to so many.
But amid an escalating climate crisis that threatens the homes of
vulnerable people across the world, has the human cost of trekking
the globe become too high? Paul Lindholdt links firsthand
narratives with research about the travel trade, telling stories of
his reluctant voyages while arguing that carbon-intensive trips
abroad may be offset if adventurers come to know and love the
landscapes closer to home. Tourism may be the planet's largest
industry, but Interrogating Travel advises readers to stay mindful
of the consequences of their journeys, whether visiting local
getaways or some of Earth's most remote locations.
