...expects to fly 2.2 billion this year, 10% more than in 2005. The result? Aviation's share of global CO2 emissions, now around 2%, is expected to hit 3% by 2050. Problem is, flying is often the only way to go. Four-fifths of airline-related emissions come from journeys over 1,500 km, for which there's no real alternative (Moscow to Beijing by bus, anyone?). But if flying simply can't be avoided, its environmental impact needn't be a write-off. Consider seating arrangements.

So I have a choice. I could work...
...success have begun to erode. Highway 1, the newly rebuilt road connecting Kabul to the southern financial capital of Kandahar, is the only paved road in Zabul, and until a little over a month ago, the eight-hour trip between the two cities had been considered a safe journey. No longer. Taliban checkpoints have been set up in several places, and trucks transporting goods to the provinces have been detained.
