“make a difference with these green ideas”
Por favor, si a alguien se le ocurre más sugerencias en este sentido, que las comparta.1. Use your canvas bags. Tote your bags with you when you go shopping to reduce or eliminate the use of plastic or paper bags. Chances are you have a bag from your last Destination Spa vacation or professional conference that you attended or a backpack that you use for picnics or hiking. Put it to good use next time you hit the grocery store, farmer’s market, or department store and say no to the store bags.
2. Drink from your water bottle. Using a refillable water bottle versus buying bottled water can have a big impact. It is a simple equation -- less packaging translates into less energy which is better for the environment.
3. Exercise outdoors.There are so many reasons to enjoy outdoor fitness activities – fresh air, scenery, free, and interaction with nature to name a few. And, it doesn’t require all of the motorized fitness equipment of a gym, the energy to operate a business, or your gas to get there.
4. Eat seasonally and locally produced foods whenever possible. Not only will the food taste fresher and be full of nutrients, but it will also be better for Mother Earth. The less the food has to travel, the less carbon dioxide from the trucks that ship it. Plus it will probably save you money.
5. When traveling, re-use the towels & sheets. Typical hotels use 218 gallons of water per day per occupied room. In addition to the large amounts of water used, excessive use of laundry detergents and other cleaning chemicals pose dangers to the environment and to the housekeeping staff. Many hotels will not replace your towels if you leave them hanging up neatly; if you're not sure, write a note for the housekeeping staff or notify the front desk.

Hola Isaac,
Tenemos un debate en mi blog sobre la intervención de la empresas en los contenidos generados por el usuario en la web.
¿Es ético?
Me gustaría que te pasases por allí a dar tu opinión.
Respecto a tu artículo me parece muy interesante. Quizás se podría crear un wiki (ferran sabe hacerlo) sobre este tema y posteriormente una vez que tengamos una relación exhaustiva de buenas prácticas, lo podría publicar en las habitaciones de nuestros hoteles y porque no de Hosbec o de la Agencia Valenciana de turismo
Un abrazo amigo
Lo del wiki me encanta. Le diré a ferran que se pase por aquí y eche un vistazo al post. Ahora me paso por tu blog.
Salu2
Me permito incluir el siguiente post de un blog sobre turismo responsable y sostenible que me parece muy interesante y apropiado.
