HIGHER GROUND: HOW TO TRAVEL RESPONSIBLY WITHOUT ROUGHING IT
Book ID/图书代码: 14020007B15655
English Summary/英文概要: Travel is the fastest growing industry in the UK, the bedrock of some countries’ economies and the highpoint of most people’s summer holidays. Yet there is growing concern about the negative effects travel is having on the environment, with CO2 emissions soaring and local communities being stripped of their natural resources. Rhiannon calls for ethical travel. Happily this does not mean hair shirts and sleeping on hard floors. Rather it is awareness of the impact your holidaying has on the environment and making responsible decisions about the flights you take, the places you stay in and the souvenirs you buy. Rhiannon Batten provides a comprehensive guide to responsible travel, illustrating the global concerns, the up and the downsides to carbon-offsetting and other eco-projects, and the best way to go about being a responsible traveller. With details of ethical travel organisations, resorts and websites, this absorbing book shows that not only can ethical travel be comfortable and enjoyable; it doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg.
