Is your journey really necessary?

By Greenbang on Thursday, 7th February 2008

2223585437_0a2e030e06.jpg‘Necessary’ is a word Greenbang was made to write out 100 times at school because he kept getting the spelling wrong.

Well Mr Newbold, it stuck!

Anyway – walking past the World War II Museam in London the other day, Greenbang saw this wartime poster with the phrase: “Is your journey really necessary?”

It really made him think about whether one day we’ll start to see modern-day posters asking the same question of us modern folk.

Let’s hope we get some funky eco-travel technology in place before such a day could come.
