Why not holiday the eco way?
Manage episode 308079298 series 2928792
The last couple of years have really decimated the holiday industry, and now may be a good time as you think about next year's holiday to do something a little different and a little greener. Perhaps instead of flying somewhere then maybe taking the train and making a second holiday of taking the train somewhere might be a better idea. Using the train is a much more green approach than driving or flying. Choosing a different type of holiday can help. If you fly then you can hire an electric car to go around the places. Some countries like Switzerland have loads of car charging points to enable you to see all the scenery. You might like to hire an e-bike and cycle around places like Belgium sampling local produce, or visit the Loire valley and taste all the wines on a bike. You can now take a more eco-friendly ferry to Brittany to save on that Carbon Footprint. Eco friendly holidays are found all over the place now - check which ones are approved. The National Trust offers many in the UK with electric charging points. Eco friendly holidays don't have to be sleeping in a tent or in a eco built house but instead can be sailing around the Mediterranean using up on fuel in a luxury yacht.
