Tips for green travel should not be only an opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the destination, but also to practice being eco­friendly( 对生态环境友好的 ). Keep on reading and learn about some of the ways by which you can be green during your holiday. Avoid Plastic Bags As much as possible, bring reusable bags rather than use plastic bags. Buy Local Products Fond of shopping? Forget big shopping malls that are filled with global brands. Instead, head to smaller markets where locals are selling their handmade arts and crafts( 工艺品 ) . Use Reusable Bottles Rather than buy bottled water, bring your own bottle. It is both convenient and cheaper. Book Non­stop Flights This is your own little way of helping reduce the emissions( 排放 ) and energy use of an airplane. Non­stop flights are “less worse” for the environment. Choose the Right Hotel Make sure to have a thorough research so that you will know which hotel to pick. Choose one that is joining in efforts to be kind to the environment. Limit Use of Energy When you are out of your hotel room, make sure to turn off the air ­ conditioner. Turn off all the lights in the room when you are about to go to sleep. Green travel can easily become a great habit that you can share with others and continue year ­ round at home. These best practices will make a big difference.
