Responsible travelling

Hello dear reader’s,

Many of us are eco-friendly on the daily bases. We segregate wastes, we buy fair-trade food,  we usually take paper bags instead of plastic ones. But when we go on holiday, we become completely another people. We start to pollute the environment, exploit local people and their natural resources. But we can’t behave like that. We aren’t the masters of the world! We can change our behavior, we can even help the environment in which we spent our holiday. The way to do it is so called responsible traveling or eco-travelling. Do you know what does it stand for? Responsible traveling is the way of touring in which a tourist ensure that the heritage and environment of nations explored don’t disintegrate under the rapid inflow of new visitors.

How to become an eco-traveller? There are many ways to protect the heriteage and environment of the country that you are visiting. The first idea is to lump your vacation time together istead of making numerous trips during a year. When you shift around, you use a loof energy. When you make a one long holiday, you will have wasted for less fuel

Yu can also create the new oxygen sources in the environment. So credits to offset your carbon footprints. When you buy it, you fund the purchase of trees which will create oxygen in the atmosphere and cover your won carbon dioxide emission.

To emit less greenhouse gases, you can change your means of transport for a more “eco” one. So, let’s take a train instead of car or a plane. A train produces one third of the plane’s emissions and one second of the car emissions. You see that if you want to be less harmful for the environment, you should choose a train.

As you see, there are plenty of ways to become a responsible taveller. It is only to your will if you become more eco or you will still exploit places you visit. Don’t be so selfish to ignore such a fantastic idea to solve the greenhouse effect problems. Travel by train, plant trees, save fuel – and you’ll improve the world. Remember, the chances to it are so close to you!
