I put my flights into a calculator and it tells me the CO2, I then go and pay to offset my carbon. Some environmentalists poo-poo the idea of offsetting, but I looked into the facts and can see no scientific basis for these opinions. It's not cheap, but its certainly affordable and it should be included in the ticket price as standard. If you can't afford to neutralise the environmental impact you shouldn't be flying.
