Villa: Galapagos Islands Versus Man

This is such a terrible shame, I hope some action is taken to preserve this unique environment before it's completely ruined! I can understand why the Ecuadorian govt are keen to exploit the islands' potential to bringing tourism cash into the economy, but their attitude seems to be somewhat shortsighted in the sense that they don't appear to be investing in infrastructure which will help to protect the environment (e.g. the lack of sewers on the islands). I very much hope that they see the sense in putting in some investment to sustain this environment and take steps to limit the impact of tourism! Cynic that I am I worry that they'll focus on short term profit though! *sigh*.

Villa: Is there compassion in bereavement fares?

Although my initial reaction was that removing compassionate was kinda harsh of the airlines, the article does make a very valid point that finding finding cheap fares online is a lot asier these days than in the past, and that that does to an extent make the caompassionate fares redundant. *shrug*.

Villa: Explorer: Israel From Cliff Top to Desert Bottom

There's some amazing landscapes and a lot of very interesting history in Israel, which I'd love to see, but I think I'll pass on visiting until the Israelis and palestinians are closer to sorting out their differences. *sigh*.

Villa: Car rental companies get into the business of sharing

It looks like a very good idea, in principle! I have to wonder how fraud proof their online registration process is though, and whether they're just going to end up loosing a lot of cars to crooks? *shrug*.
