todays tip: Take an Eco-Friendly Vacation

Read the full tip online

What?
Reduce the environmental impact of your next vacation.

How?
Keep grounded with a local "staycation."  If that's not possible, take a train instead of a plane, get a hybrid for your rental car and stay in a green hotel whenever you can.

Why?
Long-distance travel by plane or car emits a tremendous amount of greenhouse gases.  For example, a flight from JFK to San Juan, Puerto Rico, creates 626 pounds of carbon dioxide per passenger!

Did You Know?
Large hotels can generate as much as eight tons of waste per day.  Up to 60% is recyclable, but most of it is thrown away.

Okay, But How Hard Is It?
As easy as taking your conscience with you, wherever you go.3 smileys
