Too many people fly..

Too many people fly
too many times,
for too little money
and for too silly reasons
to too distant destinations

Flying from Amsterdam to Geneve is cheaper by plane than by bus.
That is: cheaper in terms of money.
The costs to the world, our living environment, are still unknown. 
What counts, and who is accounting for it?

Mobility, 
source of material wealth, 
will choke us in the end. 
The longest journey 
ends at the place of departure.
Mobiliteit, bron van materiële welvaart, 
kan ons uiteindelijk verstikken. 
De verste reis eindigt waar hij begint

Nul n'est besoin d'esperer
pour entreprendre,
Ni de reussir pour perseverer.

(This could haven a quote from 
Don Quichote, but is was the motto
of William of Orange)
