While you are away; reuse your towels and ask that sheets not be changed every day. Behave like you would want guests at your home to behave: Take shorter showers and shut off the tap while you’re brushing your teeth. Turn off lights before leaving the room. Hike marked trails. Dining out: eat local. Challenge yourself to include one local or organic ingredient in every dish on the family table. Taking home souvenirs? Buy local products and do not buy souvenirs or other products made from endangered animals or plants. For getting around use public transportation.
