The bucket list eco experiences : traveling the world, sustaining the earth / Juliet Kinsman.

Kinsman, Juliet, (author.).

Summary:

A bucket list focused on sustainable travel featuring 1,000 vacation ideas that are eco-friendly, respectful of local cultures, and highlight opportunities to give back. A new era of sustainable travel is dawning - more than ever, vacationers are seeking experiences that are sustainable for the environment, sensitive of other cultures, make a positive impact, and above all, do no harm. Included are a diverse collection of sustainable travel ideas and eco-friendly destinations for all ages and interests. These experiences range from volunteering at a wildlife preserve or centering a foodie getaway around zero-waste to visiting the Eden Project, a series of biomes and gardens in a reclaimed Cornwall mine designed to raise ecological awareness with educational programs and agriscaping. More travelers rank sustainability as a top factor, and this volume is a reliable, trustworthy resource-sensitively and thoughtfully curated, free from greenwashing and confusing terminology, it guides readers towards active, life-affirming, learning activities and new experiences. Organized geographically, entries fall into broad types-accommodation, culture, food, nature, volunteering, and wildlife-so readers pinpoint what suits them best, whether ٢voluntourism٣ while studying endangered silverback gorillas in Uganda, rehabilitating orphaned penguins outside Cape Town, or visiting an eco-coffee plantation in Puerto Rico.
