There are lots of other things you can do in order to travel more responsibly so check out our tips below on some of the changes you can make during your next adventure.
Only take what you need with you on holiday, unnecessary weight impacts the fuel consumption of the aircraft meaning the more luggage you take away, the more fuel you are using to get to your destination.
Rather than buying mini toiletries why not buy refillable bottles and top them up with your toiletries from home. Also take a refillable water bottle with you to use during your holiday to help minimise your single use plastic waste.
Your headphones should always look amazing! Pick your preferred color.
Enhance your experience by leaving your hotel and exploring the area and buy souvenirs from local vendors. Although you might be all inclusive it's also great to eat at a local restaurant at least once during your stay in order to support the local economy.
When exploring the destination think about the impact you have and utilise public transport options where possible rather than jumping in the nearest taxi. Also on longer trips rather than getting internal flights are there alternative forms of transport that will enhance your experience.
If you take a packed lunch with you when heading out to the beach or on an excursion make sure you take the rubbish with you or ensure it ends up in a nearby recycling bin rather than leaving it on the beach and it ending up in the ocean when the tide comes in.
Your headphones should always look amazing! Pick your preferred color.
When on your holiday seek out opportunities to volunteer your time, it could be as simple as taking some time out to pick up rubbish from a local beach or helping out someone with a small business. This helps engage with the local cultures and communities and really enriches your holiday experience.
