Although you’re in a hotel, look out for a change of linen and towels and change your linen every three to four days. Always turn off all electrical appliances when you leave your room and use the appliances sparingly.

Enjoy locally made food and drink – locally made food and drinks will not only be cheaper, they’ve also traveled less distances, making your meal carbon friendly.

If you’re traveling inland, take a train or a bus instead of booking a flight. Although this may take longer than a flight, you’ll be able to see the countryside while reducing your carbon footprint. It’s best to plan your stay so that you can find out what forms of public transport you can use.

Packing what you need means that you can often travel on foot or use public transport instead of looking for a taxi. Look at packing multi-purpose items and wash off a few items at your destination.

Always carry a large tote when you’re out shopping and choose to put all your shopping in your bag instead of using plastic bags offered by the vendors.
