17 May is World Recycling Day and so we\u00a0want to help you make your holidays more eco-friendly and protect our\u00a0planet.\u00a0 These days there are many ways\u00a0to minimise waste at home or anywhere we visit. Planet Earth is a wonderful\u00a0place, and if you\u2019re a traveller you\u2019ve seen it for yourself. Did you know you\u00a0can reduce waste when you travel too? If you care about the planet and want to\u00a0be a green\u00a0tourist<\/a> keep reading.<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Here are a few tips to make your holiday\u00a0more sustainable:<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

1.<\/span><\/b>Cloth bag<\/span><\/b>
<\/p>\n

We already use cloth bags in everyday life\u00a0to reduce single-use plastics. Why not do it when you travel too? They are very\u00a0practical and come in handy for carrying everything you need, so don\u2019t leave\u00a0them behind. <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

2.<\/span><\/b>Reusable water bottles<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Avoid using bottled water. It\u2019s better to\u00a0use water bottles which you can refill. This reduces plastic packaging waste. <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

3.<\/span><\/b>Sustainable accommodation<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Book your stays in sustainable,\u00a0eco-friendly accommodations. Many hotels and country guest houses use solar\u00a0power and recycle over 80{e1693626c2ee3526e60b208faf83d954eda8c9a37cbd38b184b6efe8d0cd1055} of their waste. They help conserve native plants and\u00a0encourage biodiversity and local wildlife.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

4.<\/span><\/b>Local restaurants<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a traveller, you know that going\u00a0where the locals go is the best way to have an immersive experience and enjoy\u00a0the culture. Eating out is always a pleasure. Especially when you\u2019re on\u00a0holiday. And all of us love trying the most delicious, exotic foods of each\u00a0place we visit. In these restaurants the food is fresh and locally produced,\u00a0and often organic.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
