The Brutally Honest Sustainable Tourism Video

It's not always easy to see the difference between being green and greenwashing... between protecting the environment and protecting the brand. Many are doing things well, but the industry is far from where it should be, and when it comes to small improvements, there's plenty of low-hanging fruit. Making real improvements is going to require a team effort, and travelers can encourage good behavior by voting with their wallets. We should reward those who are really trying to make improvements and steer clear of those who aren't. To those in the tourism industry who aren't enlightened enough to embrace the environment, perhaps they will do it because it's smart business.

When it comes to travelers' decisions, maybe we need to be better at picking a beach or ski resort or city just a little closer to home. Even choosing a destination that's 1 - 5 hours away by plane instead of 7 - 14 hours away makes an enormous difference. With current plane technology, there's really no way to have an eco-trip if we're starting it with an air travel journey that's more than a couple away.

I really hope that COVID forces governments and people to develop their economies and businesses in a post tourism sense.

We don’t need the tourism of Instagram selfies. Tourism to learn can be replaced with the multitudes of resources available in libraries and online, even to chat with locals.

Travel should be kept essential even after the pandemic is in the past.

I have said all my life that to realy understand and realy care you must have walked the same journey . When you visit someone in another place find a way to walk there. Try it. It will be the most astonishing thing you ever did .

To help sustainable tourism you need to remove plastic from the equation entirely.

The funny thing is the simple stuff works but doesn't look good when the big fancy stuff doesn't work but looks good.
