如何成为更环保的旅行者:让旅行更环保的建议

少坐飞机和离家近仍然是最环保的旅行方式。然而,对于心怀远方的人们而言,对您的旅行计划进行一些生态意识的调整,可以最大限度地减少您的足迹,并加深您与地球的关系。下面我们就来分享一下我们的环保旅行小贴士。如果您正专门寻找家庭环保旅行的小贴士,请向下滚动以获取更多建议。

去哪里

不需要飞行和住宿的一日游依然是非常环保的旅行选择。在地方城市和城镇可以很好地重新探索国家历史和文化。即使是乘火车或汽车到森林或海岸的短途旅行,也是一种令人神清气爽的休息方式。

如果您喜欢国际旅行,请选择一个致力于可持续发展的目的地。联系当地的旅游局或在网上快速搜索一下,都可以检索出 最环保的城市和国家清单。每个国家衡量可持续发展的方式都会有所不同,所以要花一些时间来确定他们的可持续发展政策中的哪些方面最能引起您的共鸣。一些衡量良好的空气质量,而另一些则注重步行友好性得分高和当地农贸市场的数量。

选择不太知名的目的地或淡季旅行是另一种有意识的旅行方式。您还可以考虑将生态志愿服务纳入您的旅行日程。许多 组织都有一些项目,与该地区的游客合作,共同帮助保护自然环境。

可持续旅行不仅是为了降低碳足迹,也是为了关爱和支持当地社区。当地人保护自己的社区的动力很足。您的资金可以对当地的人和环境产生积极影响,这是最直接的一种方式。寻找在工人权利、包容性和对当地社区的影响方面坚守可持续标准的住宿、旅行社和导游。把钱花在当地的生意上可以确保更多的钱留在 生活在当地的人们手中。

Dónde quedarse

Muchos servicios de alojamiento han integrado responsabilidad ambiental y social en sus modelos comerciales. Algunos locales establecidos han tomado el camino de la obtención de la certificación ecológica. Sin embargo, esto no quiere decir que los alojamientos locales, como las estadías en casas y granjas, no sean ecológicos.

También hay servicios de búsqueda de alojamiento que plantan árboles por cada reservación que se realiza o donan una porción de sus ganancias a proyectos sociales y sustentables en áreas locales.

Las casa pequeñas, las cabañas de troncos y las carpas son ecológicas por naturaleza y tienen menor impacto ambiental. El intercambio de casas es otra opción de bajo costo que provoca un menor impacto ambiental.

Cómo llegar

Los medios más sustentables para viajar dependerán de diferentes variables. Se puede afirmar que los viajes en tren tienen una menor huella de carbono que los viajes en avión o en automóvil. El medio de transporte más contaminante es el vuelo corto porque el mayor consumo de combustible se genera durante el despegue y el aterrizaje.

Se puede concluir que cualquier viaje de menos de 500 km debe primero considerarse en tren o automóvil. Varios sitios útiles le ayudarán a calcular y comparar la emisión y el consumo de energía por viaje aéreo, en tren y en automóvil.

Qué empacar

Empacar con consciencia puede parecer una pequeña contribución a los viajes sustentables, pero hasta las elecciones más pequeñas pueden tener un gran efecto.

Vale la pena considerar los productos para el cuidado de la piel y protectores solares sin químicos después de que en Hawái se prohibieran los protectores solares que contienen oxibenzona y octinoxato en 2018. Los científicos descubrieron que estas sustancias químicas aumentan la velocidad del blanqueo del coral y son perjudiciales para su crecimiento.

A fin de reducir el plástico de un solo uso cuando está de viaje, lleve botellas de agua, tazas de café, recipientes para aperitivos y cubiertos reutilizables. También hay muchas emocionantes alternativas ecológicas a los artículos de tocador de tamaño de viaje no ecológicos. Intente cambiar el gel de ducha por jabón y el champú en botella por barras de champú. Encuentre desodorantes que vengan en cremas y cepillos de dientes hechos de materiales biodegradables.

Para completar el proceso de empaque, necesitará algo funcional y elegante para guardar todos estos artículos. El equipo ligero hará que viajar sea fácil y placentero, mientras que la construcción de calidad asegurará la longevidad. Después de todo, lo duradero es sustentable.

Tips on Sustainable Travel for Families

Many parents view traveling sustainably a crucial part of teaching the next generation about the importance of protecting our planet. The ToptoTop expedition are a huge source of inspiration for us and we are one of their official sponsors as they travel across the planet, educating everyone they meet about climate change.

The family consists of Dario, a climatologist, and Sabine, a nurse, along with their six children. With their eldest daughter, Salina, already an accomplished public speaker, the children are just as powerful ambassadors for sustainable living as their parents. As Dario and Sabine point out: “We have found that our message is much more effective when our children talk to their peers”. Their own experiences were at the forefront of their minds as this well-traveled and adventurous family sat down together to share with us their tips for sustainable travel.

Take Your Time

“It’s crucial that you adapt yourself to the rhythm of nature” says Dario, “If you have only a limited amount of time, you might rush your plans. Maybe you’ll disregard an avalanche warning with hazardous consequences”. Dario recalls the time the family sailed across the Atlantic ocean, where they were often accompanied by whales or dolphins, to the delight of the children. “If you flew over this ocean, as most people do, you would totally miss out on this magical experience” points out Dario. Although not everyone has the luxury of time, you can still apply this mentality to your two week holiday.

Never Too Young To Learn

Whether experiencing your own country or traveling abroad, it’s never too young to learn an appreciation for nature.  As Dario says, “Kids who swim in rivers or lakes in Switzerland will grow up to be adults who fight passionately to protect these rivers and lakes”. Dario hopes that the global work of the ToptoTop expedition will have the same effect: “The seals on Robinson Crusoe Island in Chile are often hunted by fishermen. We took a group of local schoolchildren swimming with the seals and it was an amazing experience for everyone, I am pretty sure that these children will not grow up to be fishermen who hunt and kill these beautiful animals”.

Less Is More

Equally good for you is traveling light, according to Dario. “We once cycled for a week between settlements in Australia, with two small children. This experience taught us how to reduce what we took with us down to the absolute minimum, so we could carry all the water that we needed”. The family believes traveling with only minimal possessions adds a certain lightness not just to your luggage but also to your soul. “We learned that the less we took, the less we needed to worry about what we had forgotten”. Do the kids ever get bored with the few toys they are allowed to take on the boat? “Absolutely not!” laughs Dario. “The fewer toys they have, the more creative and curious they become. Nature is after all the best teacher”.

Combine Travel with a Mission

Although not everyone wants to dedicate their holidays to a volunteering project, it is still possible to have a positive impact on your destination when you travel: “Whether you are on a tropical beach or a mountain hike, take a bag with you and pick up any litter you find on the way”. Dario affirms that this simple and effective way of helping is something that he and his family love to do. “Nature is so generous, she gives us so much – from stunning scenery to peaceful moments” says Dario. “When you pick up litter, it’s like you are giving something back to nature”.

Share Experiences with Others

For the Schwörers, respecting nature and respecting the people you meet go hand in hand. It’s all part of their philosophy of traveling slowly: “When you don’t rush, you have more time to meet people, to make a connection and to learn from others” says Dario. “This can only improve your experience and most importantly expand your knowledge, helping you to learn the importance of protecting our planet”.
