We have lots of moral options for traveling over land, and even some options for relatively short oceanic trips, like across the Atlantic from W. Europe to/from N. America.

What are the current possibilities for traveling from e.g. USA to Taiwan? I’m willing to entertain options that don’t have “mass market” appeal.

    Personally I think that although container ships are indeed polluting and nasty, traveling on one shouldn’t be measured against flying, as airplanes only fly to transport human passengers, without whom they would not fly. Meanwhile, traveling via container ship is more akin to using someone else’s waste product since the reason for the container ship making the journey is to deliver non-human cargo, and a few passengers using some spare corner space is just a bonus. I’ve looked into this option and will look again. Also will look into smaller boats, thanks.

    Another option is to 1000x my biochar production to offset emissions.
