Being A Responsible Tourist

Responsible tourism has become a buzz word today when I goggled it gave me “About 88,700,000 results (0.28 seconds)”. When I tried reading the information about it went on about nation government policies and global policies. There are many different phrases used for this term “Green tourism’ “ethical” or “sustainable tourism” being some of them. All of these are used to convey tourism that is good for the people and environment in holiday destinations.

It made me think what I as a traveler should do to be a responsible tourist. Do I stop visiting the places I love? Do I stop my air travel to cut down on my carbon footprints? Are all the efforts that I take actually beneficial? For tourism adds on to the economy so much. My confusion led to an epiphany and confusion gave way to conclusion. I thought I should be responsible to the 3 P’s People, Places & Planet.

People, as a tourist my endeavor should be to ensure that local people should get a fair deal out of my visit. I should make use of goods or services of the locals… such as great tasting, authentic food from a local restaurant, real local crafts to take home as a lasting souvenir or guiding services so that I get a peek in the lives of the locals. Do not buy products made from endangered or wild animals and plants. Dress appropriately for the place that you are visiting (a little background reading helps before you leave). Get closer to the country you visit, take book excursions with local suppliers and tour guides. It not only enriches your experience but also supports the local economy.

Places, it’s really important that holidays help conserve and protect our environment, the amazing wildlife within it and the fragile eco system around it. Pristine environments are what make good holidays great. But then too much of tourist in the places of fragile ecosystem can be dangerous. Andaman and Nicobar Islands damaged coral reefs and the Sunderbans are prime examples of such endangerment. Greener travel ensures that any ‘nature’ excursion or tour is taken by guides who know how to preserve the natural environment and wildlife. I am here reminded of my trip to Corbett National Park where for the jungle safari an Assistant Conservator of Forest, accompanied us who not only was knowledgeable but was also very conscious about the preservation of the jungle.

Planet, this is about our carbon footprint. There are lots of simple ways for you to reduce carbon emissions. Whilst on holiday take short showers rather than baths, reuse towels and bed linen rather than replacing them daily. Many hot countries suffer from periods of drought and this will help to conserve water. Remove packaging from items that you are taking away with you. Turn off heating and air-conditioning when not required. Be kind to the wild life, a nice picture shot for you might be a gruesome experience for the animal. Do not stretch your limits of exploring do not go to forbidden places.

By making small changes in the way that we tourists travel, we can all make a difference and ensure that the destinations we love to visit will be here for future generations to enjoy and are not sacrifices by Irresponsible Tourism.

Responsible Tourism – Travelers Tips

Before You Start Your Trip

Do your research on the places your will be visiting and familiarized yourself with any environmental/wildlife/local people and cultures concerns that exist. It is important to be aware of these and think about how things you can do on your trip could help.

If you are booking your holidays through a tour operator, check if they have a sustainable tourism policy.

Check to see if the hotel you will be staying at operates in a sustainable way.

You may wish to consider staying in accommodation that is locally owned and operated to ensure the monetary benefits stay in the local area.

Try to minimize the packaging you take with you, excess packaging such as plastic and various types of boxes are a major expense for local communities.

There are a growing number of trips and excursions that can be booked locally operated by local people who are likely to have the best knowledge of the area. Try to book these trips and it can ensure more of the money for the trips goes to help local people and supports the local economy.

Travelling By Air & Carbon Offsetting

Carbon emissions from air flights can do the most damage to the environment than other aspects of your trip. Travellers can off set the carbon emissions they are responsible for by investing in projects all around the world aimed at reducing and preventing carbon emissions. The projects are wide ranging an include energy efficient schemes, restoring forests and investing in renewable energy sources among others. Travelers can off set the carbon emissions and become 'carbon neutral' essentially putting back in what they took out.

For shorter journeys that have viable alternatives to air travel, you may wish to consider using road, rail, coach and ferry.

Natural Resources Considerations

Natural resources are at a premium all over the world, this is particularly so in developing countries, use natural resources such as water carefully and be sparing in your use of them. Do not unnecessarily waste resources such as water by leaving the taps on when brushing or shaving.

Help conserve resources in your hotel, be careful with using heating and electricity, if the heating or air conditioning is too high turn it down and do not waste electricity such as leaving the TV on when not using it and leaving the lights on when not in the room.

Inform hotel staff that you can use hotel towels and bedding for more than one day.

Reduce the litter you produce, bottles can be re used as can many types of containers. Re use any plastic bags you may have.

Local Economy Tips

Consider buying goods produced locally and from local markets and shops. There are many projects around the world encouraging local people to use their skills in producing local goods, seek out these projects and help to support them.

Avoid buying goods that use materials and resources that are endangered or in short supply. Be careful to avoid buying anything that is illegal, you can face prosecution in the host country and prosecution in the UK if you bring the goods in to the UK. If you are buying goods and souvenirs check they do not break local & international law.

Pay a fair price for goods and services, trying to bargain down the price too low can mean local sellers find it very difficult to make a living from tourists. Paying over the odds is not only expensive but can inadvertently increase the prices local people are expected to pay for the same goods.

Show respect for the local people and local laws and customs. Cultures and customs vary greatly throughout the world and can be very different to that experienced in the UK. Nonetheless, travelling has the great ability to bring diverse people from all cultures and backgrounds together. If you show respect to local people and cultures you are likely to very well received on your travels, making for a much more enjoyable trip for yourself and the hosts.

Environmental & Wildlife Tips

Show respect for the environment and wildlife on your trips.

Do not give support to see shows and activities that exploit animals.

On wildlife trips i.e. safaris, bird watching choose a reputable firm and ask them about their policies on sustainable tourism and wildlife. Follow advice on safe distances to observe animals from, do not get too close or force the animals to change their behaviors (a sign you are too close).

Show respect for the animals and their habitats and environment on your trips.

If you feel either wildlife or the environment is not being correctly cared for, looked after or respected, complain to your tour company or activity provider and make yourself heard, the more people to complain against these wrongs is more likely to alter behaviors in the future.

Do not buy souvenirs from wild animals, do not give any support to illegal poaching that has devastated many species that were once plentiful bring them to the brink of extinction.
