How much do you care about your carbon footprint when travelling?

If you fly, then there's no way to recover from the emissions created during flight.

Haven't you heard, we're already "beyond the point of no return™". May as well live your life to the fullest before we all die horrible deaths.

It's a scam created by the elite. It used to be the concept of sin but people stopped believing in it. Now we have the new priests preaching about carbon sin. We all do it, there's no escaping it, and the only thing to atone is to pay carbon tax. Just like back in the olden days you could wipe away you sins with a donation to the church.
i care about it a lot, not only during holidays.
i refuse to drive, and i try to get my family to use public transport (took a decade, but they're giving in!). i highly prefer trains, but any sort of public and shared transport is better than having our own car...
for short distances i walk/jog or bike. (short as in if i have less than 40km to cover the whole day.) otherwise combine it with public transport.
i do not purchase those co2 things with plane tickets normally, i just make sure to vouch for eco friendly things in general... like short wash cycles on the washing machine instead of longer ones, not buying individually wrapped vegetables and fruits, always bringing my own bags to shops (if you meet me, I always have at least one extra), making sure i only buy as much as i eat... i am moving quite a lot these days, so i don't grow my own veggies now, but will definitely get into that again soon.
flying i'm guilty of. to my defense, i don't do short flights too much, so only places where i can't get to by train or long distance bus without transferring etc

for every good thing you do in regards to climate change there are 10 streetshitters that will undo everything you could possibly do
I'm in India on holiday at the moment, and it's actually made me quite depressed in respect of staying green.
Likes >>1231306 says, I just kind of think 'what's the point' in even trying, given the state of the environment I've seen here.

They said the same thing 4 years ago too. I remember being sad. How many times can we cross the point of no return?

who am i to seriously care about the choices others make. i do my thing, if someone follows my example, good for them/us, if not... well, i don't blame them, i blame education/human nature.
