Sustainable Travel
What is Sustainable Travel?
The World Tourism Organization defines sustainable tourism as “development [which] meets the needs of present tourists and host regions while protecting and enhancing opportunity for the future. It is envisaged as leading to management of all resources in such a way that economic, social, and aesthetic needs can be fulfilled while maintaining cultural integrity, essential ecological processes, biological diversity, and life support system.”
It’s about valuing the environment and protecting our natural resources ecause it’s the right thing to do!
Do No Harm
Sustainable travel means finding a way that tourism can be maintained long-term without harming natural and cultural environments. Sustainable travel should minimize the negative impacts of tourism and ideally be beneficial to the area in which it takes place.
Protect and Conserve
There is crossover in definition between sustainable travel, responsible travel, eco-tourism and green travel. These terms encompass the idea of being more conscious of how we travel. They seek to minimize negative impacts on the environment and aim to have a positive impact for local communities and economies.
