Colour your travels Green!

The world has many beautiful places for us to explore. But this exploration needs to be done responsibly and in an eco friendly manner.

Often we have seen pictures of beautiful places getting destroyed due to plastic and other waste products dumped by tourists and travellers.

Here in this blog we make it easy for you to travel by taking care of the ecosystem as well, in the best possible way:

Avoid Plastics: This is a very important rule where eco friendly travel is concerned. Avoid carrying plastic bags or anything in a plastic carrier. Plastic bags are not biodegradable and takes more than 500 years to degrade. So it is always best to carry reusable shopping bags along with you. bag-416587_960_720

Travel Light: The best way to have a lovely travel experience is to travel light. In this way you will not tax yourself or the flight with extra load, which will lead to carbon emission.

Mode of Transport: As far as possible try to choose the public transport while travelling for long distances. While exploring the city it is better to ride a bicycle. You will definitely cut down the carbon emission to a great extent. Great for health too.

Treat your hotel as home: When you are staying in a hotel, do not unnecessarily waste water or electricity. Usage of resources should be done responsibly and not lavishly.

Dispose carefully: Often it happens people tend to dispose used packets and other wastes just in the open without caring about the eco-system. That’s not right! Always dispose the waste in the right place.

The famous poet John Keats once said “A thing of beauty is a joy forever” so if you do not travel in an eco friendly manner very soon these natural beauties of the world will be lost and so also the joy.

So travel far and experience the best without causing any harm to the environment.
