Island Collecting - 111 Ways to Downcarbon

In how many ways could we visit islands in the sea? Can we travel with low eco impact-or even none?George writes for un-privileged travellers like him, for whom any sort of island visit counts as an adventure. Which Scottish or British island visit might lead you to cross a bridge or even a footbridge over an ocean, follow a prince, saint or writer, meet a King, require two ferries, change your calendar, or hum an overture?Have you ever visited one island from another, or slept or camped on an island? Or landed on an uninhabited one? Did you take children, go there for charity, fall in love, or get stranded? Did you carbon-offset your journey?Not a traveller? Can you collect stamps, read or write about islands, or even invent your OWN island?-although:'A few invented islands are so daft that, frankly, they would have been better submerged at birth.'George has visited over 120 islands, 50 of them Scottish ones about which he tells dozens of tales including historic wildlife ones. He includes many unusual colour images. He surveys island life worldwide, from trivia to tragedy. And he adds hundreds of fascinating island facts from geography, history and natural history. However:'I do not advise collecting islands; an island plucked from its home would be a mere lump of rock, perhaps with some very annoyed islanders on it.'Rather, George describes 100 ways of visiting islands - but for environmental reasons only recommends 86 of these sorts of 'Visit' - and he offers NO island bucket list of ones you absolutely must travel to; his visits might apply (in principle) to ANY islands.Or you can try 25 home 'Projects', and in listing these he surveys island literature and culture globally . 86 plus 25 = 111.
