For many people, vacationing means camping and enjoying the great outdoors. When camping, it’s important to leave the smallest footprint behind at campsites. Some easy ways to green your camping routine include leaving disposable items like cups, plates and utensils behind and using reusable ones instead. Even “eco-friendly” disposables still leave food traces behind and can be too tempting for wildlife, leaving them to rummage through trash cans. If you do light a campfire, source local wood and don’t bring any from home; bringing firewood with you can mean transporting invasive insect species.
