Will the "social aspect" of the word "slouching" affect 2023 travel trends?

Once more the "power of language" is being unleashed, but this time, it is the "marketer" who is setting you up for a better "social purpose" when you travel. 
Of course, the travel in comfort with less $$$ ethic is not applicable when travel is slanted toward the currently trendy "sustainable" areas in the world  that tout a "green" environment, as well, the most expensive travel sustainably gear is used by the tour operators who are engaged in creating only socially acceptable travel products to meet the aims of the climate and environment  activists. 
Think of the way traveling in Africa is done, and has been done since the early nineteenth century.
Even in this 21st century, the "natives" of the region cart the camping gear used for a grand tour of the African environment where animals roam free within a certain restricted territory, but the best part of travel, "meeting and "greeting the "natives" is only sustainable within a controlled environment, all other observations are limited to what the tour operator decides.
 
Currently, the 21st century "sustainable" thrust is towards international travel. 
The domestic travel scene so far is still geared to the "greyhound" bus method of over-packed planes with a minimal of space for a variety of "economy" seats.   
As for "Business class," those seats are currently priced at what used to be the charge for 1st class travel, and sharing an airplane charter with a group of your friends is a better investment without having the hassle of TSA's latest directives.
