Green travel

Green travel is a method for people to travel while reducing their impact on the environment. Green travel involves a wide range of options - all centered around the idea of preserving the planet - so the places we visit will still be around the future.

Green Travel can take on many forms, and the idea is to find ways to "lighten your load" on the planet:

*Use of walking, cycling, and public transport instead of car use, when possible.
*Renting hybrid cars.
*Use of biodiesel fuels.
*Taking advantage of ridesharing and carpools
*Stay at a green scored hotel or lodge.
*Booking with a green organization or green travel provider
*Volunteer Travel -volunteering some time giving back to the community you visit
*Offsetting your carbon footprint - making a donation to offset the amount of carbon that your trip expels into the atmosphere
