Make your hotel stay more nature friendly and lessen your carbon footprint

Are you all set to travel this Labor Day weekend? If you are, do try and make your hotel stay more eco-friendly. By doing so, not only will you do your bit in reducing your carbon footprint, you will also prove yourself to be a responsible global citizen.

For those who are not aware, carbon footprint is the total amount of carbon-dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases produced by the various human activities. Do you know that CO2 is one of the main culprits of global warming? So, the lesser the CO2 emitted in the environment the better it is.
Becoming environment friendly is easier than you think. When you are traveling you could do a few simple things like re-use the towels (hang them out to dry, this will help to lessen the amount of bleach and detergents being expelled in the environment), switch off the lights and the air conditioner of the room when you step out (this helps to save valuable energy), and last but not the least, take a solar powered charger with you for charging all your electronic items.
Not only is the solar powered charger eco-friendly it saves you from the hassle of looking for voltage converters if you are going to a foreign country.
So, the next time you travel, do try to reduce your impact on the environment by being more nature friendly in your habits! After all as some one has rightly said,
Take care of the earth and she will take care of you.
