Summer “exit operation” begins in Euskal Herria. By car, by plane, by bicycle, by motorhome, by boat... but out and if possible as far away as possible. The holidays are to hide the misery of the house in the closet, take the suitcase with wheels to your side and go somewhere that does “good time”, asking the majority. Of course, that majority is the whole set of citizens who are able to make that “investment” or “waste” of money, from where it looks.
And to balance the “departure operation” also come here the “visitors”. In Álava, Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa 67% of tourists arrive by car, while in collective transport the aircraft is the most used (17.5%), according to data from Ibiltur of the Basque Government in summer 2022. The latter, along with the cruise, is the most polluting and environmentally damaging means of transport, as defined by the World Tourism Organization and the United Nations Programme.
Atmosfair.de The German NGO accurately calculates carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere for each flight: 247 kilograms of CO2 per person from Bilbao to Mallorca, 577 kilograms from Biarritz to Rome and 7,320 kilograms per person, not per aircraft, from Pamplona to the Philippines. Here's the gap: in the case of first-class flights, pollution doubles. According to an analysis from the Guardian newspaper, the CO2 emitted by each long-distance flight is the same as a single person from some countries emitted throughout the year.
Another thing is private jet. At the beginning of July in El Diario Vasco, it was noted that in Hondarribia a private jet of 100,000 euros, coming directly from New York, has been dropped to bring a “rich family”. “Turistification, elitization and ecological damage with the support of public institutions and DV propaganda,” the Bizilagun platform has denounced.
Who does ecological damage? Tourists? Multinationals? Us? Is it possible to travel sustainably? The brand is that later, during the holidays, the working class feels responsible for the climate change and the tourist, while the rich and millionaires take private jet, to spend a few days watching the fireworks of San Sebastian or asking at the restaurant Akelarre de Subijana, parsing the helicopter in the goal.

EHGAMek Axel hotelaren irregulartasunei jarritako helegitearen inguruko isiltasun administratiboaren ondoren, hotelaren itxiera eskatzen du eta hainbat eragileekin batera prentsaurrekoa eman dute.
Frantziako Estatuko diputatuak eta senatariak ados jarri dira. Orain arte, alokairu turistiko bat alokatzen zutenek etekinen %50 zergapetik kentzeko aukera zuten, urte osoko alokatzaileek, berriz, %30. Lege proposamenak biak hein berdinera ekarriko ditu, hots, %30era.
