Guide for Good

Planning to travel this summer? Check out Business Enterprises for Sustainable Travel (BEST) at www.sustainabletravel.org. Be sure to see How to Be a Civic Traveler. Sustainable traveling, or being a civic traveler, has been defined differently. One definition is suggested by BEST's vision statement: "...simple-tourism can benefit destinations by providing better livelihoods for residents, preserving the natural environment and celebrating local culture. Tourism can even restore cherished cultural traditions and landscapes and enhance the quality of life in economically disadvantaged communities."*********************Categories: Traveling
