It’s often tough for us travel warriors to combine our desire to see and experience the world with our goal of saving the planet. Living HERE and wanting to be THERE, half a world away, does not signal a trip that’s going to be carbon-neutral. What’s a girl to do? There really isn’t much you can do about substituting out that plane ride necessary to travel through multiple time zones, but it is possibly to do other things to help reduce wear and tear on Mother Earth. Here are 16 suggestions for greener, more planet-friendly travel.
1. Take the hotel up on their offer to wash less sheets and towels. (I mean, sorry to disappoint you, but I don’t wash my bedclothes at home every day, either).
2. Take those half-used toiletries home with you- they’re meant to be taken and will only be thrown away when you leave.
