So many live in a tiny echo chamber, talking to themselves and putting ideology before reality. Xavier Font is not one of them. He is my go-to expert on anything travel sustainability. Disclosure: I do not claim to be sustainable; I write this en route to my 17th country this year with more to go before the end of the year. I do have strong opinions on how we solve the travel sustainability paradox, and you will not be surprised to hear that I believe the solution is #technology.
