7 travel stories to help you celebrate 50th anniversary of Earth Day

Because of coronavirus restrictions, many of the celebrations for the 50th anniversary of Earth Day have been forced indoors and online. To help offset the isolation of worldwide social-distancing measures, the Travel desk has collected a series of stories to help recall the spirit of the annual event.
Some of these stories will force you to grapple with the many threats posed by climate change and travel: carbon offsets, frequent flier miles, the moral dilemmas posed by international travel. Others will simply transport you to a distant corner of the earth.
But all of them, we hope, will remind you of the natural world’s many splendors — and why environmental protections will be of crucial importance for the future of our planet.
