Wherever we go and whatever we do, we have an impact. But you don't have to stay at home with last year's holiday snaps to be green. Being a green traveller simply means treating resources, such as water and energy, with the same consideration as you would at home.
If we can adjust our travel attitudes and general habits so that we incorporate simple things like using local products and car-free days naturally into holiday arrangements, we can make a real difference.
Being greener during your holiday doesn't have to be a hassle, or mean that you won't enjoy your visit, it just helps to ensure that you can come back to enjoy the same things time and time again.
