Green travel organizations - The
International Ecotourism Society - www.ecotourism.org Green certification programs Travelers are challenged to distinguish
truly sustainable efforts from the “greenwashed” travel packages. While there
is no single internationally-accepted standard for green tourism, there are
several certification programs that define what being green really means and
provide their stamp of approval to those who qualify. To find out more about
a place where you’re planning to vacation, look in their promotional
materials for an indication of certification or qualification. For listings
and descriptions of certified tours or lodgings, get in touch with Earth
Routes or visit the websites of these organizations: |
