"We want to discourage Christmas shopping in London, disco nights in Ibiza, Milan weekends and stag nights in Barcelona," Dutch Friends of the Earth said on Friday.

Friends of the Earth said aviation was responsible for 10 percent of the Dutch contribution to the greenhouse gas emissions that are a leading cause of global warming.
