At Saltus Travel & Tourism, we believe that every traveler can make a positive impact. Here are some simple yet effective tips to help you travel more sustainably while enjoying your adventure:
1. Save Energy & Conserve Water
- Turn off lights and electronics when not in use, especially in hotel rooms or vacation rentals.
- Opt for natural lighting and use energy-efficient appliances whenever possible.
- Reduce water usage by taking shorter showers and reusing towels at accommodations.
2. Respect Wildlife & Local Cultures
- Observe wildlife from a distance and avoid disturbing animals in their natural habitats.
- Avoid purchasing products made from endangered species or that harm local ecosystems (e.g., coral jewelry or animal skins).
- Learn about local customs and traditions to respect the culture of the communities you visit. A little cultural awareness goes a long way in creating meaningful travel experiences.
3. Minimize Waste & Recycle
- Say no to single-use plastics. Bring a reusable water bottle, straw, and shopping bag to reduce plastic waste.
- Recycle whenever possible. Be mindful of local recycling programs, and separate recyclables from trash.
- Pack smart by bringing eco-friendly travel essentials, like biodegradable soap, reusable containers, and a compact travel kit to reduce waste.
