THE BEST THING TO DO FOR THE ENVIRONMENT IS TO STAY AT HOME, WE ALL KNOW THIS. BUT HUMANS ARE CURIOUS BY NATURE, AND MANY OF US CRAVE THE WORLD! WE CAN PROMISE YOU THAT BEING ENVIRONMENTALLY AWARE DOESN'T HAVE TO BE DIFFICULT. SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL MEANS MORE THAN JUST GIVING UP FLYING. THEREFORE, THIS POST WILL GIVE YOU FIVE IDEAS ON HOW TO MAKE YOUR TRAVELS MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY.
ALWAYS KEEP THE ENVIRONMENT IN MIND WHEN YOU TRAVEL
1. AIRPLANE, TRAIN, BUS, BOAT, OR BIKE?
Research all available transportation options before booking a flight. It's good to explore your options for a boat, bus, or train. Maybe the journey can be the destination?
There are times when flying is the only choice. Luckily, there are many conscious choices you can make to continue being nice to mother earth. The majority of fuel emissions occur during takeoff and landing, therefore whenever you can, book direct flights to offset some of these emissions. It will both spare the environment and save you some time on your travels.
2. TRAVEL WITH REUSABLES
The best way to reduce your waste output is to produce less. We’ve therefore made a post on the subject of How To: Create Your Zero Waste Travel Kit. Head over there to get inspired!
3. PACK LIGHT
Packing light is essential when traveling more sustainably. Do you know why?
It's because the amount of fuel an aircraft consumes depends on its weight. When it comes to the weight of a plane, each passenger counts! Consider packing less for fewer emissions.
4. STAY AT ECO-CONSCIOUS ACCOMMODATION
Another action you can take to protect the environment is to book eco-friendly accommodation. They have started putting toxic-free, safer green living practices into practice for both people and animals. How great does it sound!?
5. USE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATIONS
Using public transportation has a lot of benefits. It not only benefits the environment, but it also leads to memorable moments. Whether it includes witnessing a dance on the subway or starting a conversation with a stranger, we guarantee that it will enrich your memory vault.
Pro tips: A compact, light-weight suitcase will make it easier for you to take public transportation.
