Green Tip of the Day

Eco-Camper

Make sure to bring out any waste that you bring in. Leave no trace behind, and recycle what you can when your trip is over.

If you’re going to purchase new equipment, look for sleeping bags, clothing and other products made from recycled materials. Borrow camping equipment from friends and family. By trading and sharing, you reduce your group’s need for gear that you may not use on a regular basis.

Bring reusable dishes and silverware, rather than disposable items. They may not be recyclable and create unnecessary waste.

Document your trip through photos and a blog. Share your experience with friends and family to spread your green camping knowledge.
