Should we still travel given the current climate situation?

This debate is gaining momentum day by day. Putting an end to air travel or limiting it through a ranking system seems unrealistic and poses a major challenge to democracy. On the other hand, ignoring CO2 emissions from air transport is simply unthinkable. However, there are alternatives between these two extreme positions that allow for responsible travel. Seminaire.com is committed to exploring and sharing these solutions with you, delving a little deeper each day.

vols-directs-economiques Economical direct flights

In planning your itinerary, our air service always favors direct flights and the most energy-efficient planes. On this front, the airline industry is moving towards the use of synthetic kerosene, notably in Europe, under a regulatory project requiring a minimum of 2% kerosene (based on hydrogen and CO2).

Air transport is a significant aspect of our operations, currently accounting for 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, a number that continues to rise. While technology is progressing to upgrade all airline fleets, the most advanced solution currently involves synthetic fuel—a blend of hydrogen and CO2. This fuel has the technical advantage of being immediately usable without modifications to existing airline fleets. Some airlines now provide passengers with the option to voluntarily contribute to funding this transformation. Seminaire.com also advocates for the implementation of a tax to expedite the advancement of this technology.

neutralite-carbone What does carbon neutrality mean?

Each trip contributes measurably to global warming. We precisely calculate the amount of CO2 emissions associated with all your trips with us. This precise calculation model, certified by ADEME (French Environment and Energy Management Agency), allows us to determine the number of trees to plant to offset the total volume of emitted CO2. For more than ten years, our growing commitment to reforestation projects now allows us to fully offset the CO2 emissions generated by our trips. Once neutrality is achieved, we of course continue to reduce our emissions by supporting these projects, the additional aspect (a commitment exclusively dedicated to reforestation) and sustainability (at least forty years) of which are guaranteed by an independent entity. Our short-term goal is to offset twice as much carbon as we emit, by multiplying reforestation projects.
