Stops taking flights for training trips

Petra Palmén is one of members that pushed for Friskis & Svettis to stop flying, and her work has now resulted in a decision from the swedish training association Friskis & Svettis to only arrange sustainable training trips, no more flights! - This is an important signal to society that aviation is not sustainable and it shows a strong leadership of Friskis & Svettis, says Petra. They dared to make an awkward decision today but which in the long run is the only right way. Friskis & Svettis consists of a national organization and currently 159 local Friskis & Svettis associations with over half a million members. Great decision by Friskis & Svettis. Well done Petra Palmén and everyone else that made this happen.

            I was actually reading about this and looking on their website and there were still many trips to Spain and Portugal (by plane) so I don't really get it? Or is it not implemented yet?

              The decision was last saturday, so I guess they haven't had time to adjust yet. :D

                Great step in the right direction. We need to change our ways in everything we do. Looking forward to training camps in Sweden with Friskis&Svettis.
