availability of resources and does not stop futuretravelers from enjoying the same experience
Responsible Tourism
Tourism which reduces negative impacts on theenvironment. A camping trip using "Leave No Trace"ethics would be considered responsible tourism.
Green Tourism
Often called eco-tourism and sustainable tourismbut more accurately described as "any activity orfacility operating in an environmentally friendly way".A lodge with composting toilets, gray water system,and solar powered lighting is probably "green".Before you stay in a hotel check if it recycles orpractices energy saving methods. Better still, why notcamp?
