🌍 Happy Earth Day! 🌱
This planet is our home, and it’s up to us to protect it. 🌳 Whether it’s planting trees, reducing waste, or just spending more time in nature, every small act adds up. Let’s take care of our Earth today and every day — for our future and the generations to come.
💚 “If not us, then who? If not now, then when?”
As tourism is responsible for roughly 8% of the world’s carbon emissions, it’s important that all of us who possess a spirit of wanderlust make an effort to travel more eco-consciously.
Here, we explore three easy ways you can protect the planet & support local communities while travelling.
💚 Stay, Shop & Eat Locally - whether it’s staying in an eco-friendly guesthouse, visiting a market or buying souvenirs in artisan stores, this all helps to support the local people.
💚 Leave No Trace - especially in protected areas such as national parks, planning your route to avoid delicate or at-risk terrain helps to preserve the habitats & ecosystems. Always remove any waste, including food scraps, to leave the area clean.
💚 Act Locally & Globally - travel, whether it is in your own city/area or to a whole new country, can include fun & helpful ways to preserve & protect our environment.
So on your next trip, plant some trees, help launch baby sea turtles or do a beach/stream clean-up....you may find that it's the highlight of your adventure!
