We enjoy traveling the world because we love the earth and his nature above all things. Precisely for this reason it hurts us so much to witness the destruction to which human beings are subjecting the environment, from fires to deforestation. And let's not talk about marine and land pollution caused by plastics, microplastics and other toxic substances.
Decades and decades have been necessary to realize the need to extend sustainability to the tourism sector as well, because there are places where we may be passing through, but that does not exempt us from contributing, without intending to, to the destruction of its ecosystem. . Shouldn't he responsable tourism begin with our suitcase ?
We have prepared a list of essentials to travel with without causing an impact on your holiday destination.
