POW UK: Our Way There Is Costing Us Everything

Transport Emissions Threaten Future of Outdoor Sports, Campaigners Warn.

Transport is emerging as one of the biggest threats to the future of outdoor sports, with campaigners highlighting its role as a leading contributor to climate change and the sector's carbon footprint.

Environmental organisation Protect Our Winters UK is calling for urgent reform of the UK's transport system, urging policymakers to make travel more affordable, accessible, and better suited for those heading outdoors with equipment.

The group warns that while outdoor enthusiasts rely on travel to access mountains, trails, and natural spaces, current systems are contributing to environmental damage that ultimately puts these destinations at risk.

"Don't let the journey destroy the destination," the campaign states, encouraging individuals to take action.

Protect Our Winters UK is seeking 5,000 signatures on a petition it plans to present to the UK Government, calling for cleaner transport options that work for both people and the planet. Supporters argue that the outdoor community has a responsibility to help protect the environments it depends on.

Campaigners are urging the public to sign and share the petition as part of a broader push to reduce emissions and safeguard natural spaces for future generations.

Don’t let the journey destroy the destination.
