I'm also thinking in terms of energy used to make a physical book versus the energy needed to use an e-reader or generate the book into electronic form.

And, yes, I've traveled, and am comfortable not reading the whole time of getting there and back. Too many don't understand how to be present in their own thoughts and comfortable with that. Once there, I'd rather record my trip by camera and some writing, but mostly just remember it. Reading while I'm there kind of takes away from the experience of being there ;)
