Comet Newsletter highlights travelling light and helping out
Posted at 07:22AM Aug 14, 2007 by CarolB
We polled over 24,500 people worldwide in our annual Travellers' Pulse survey and the numbers show travellers want to get sustainable - 84% of respondents said they would consider offsetting their carbon emissions in the future, and 79% of respondents said they would consider volunteering in the future. The future is now, my friends!
The August edition of Comet zeroes in on the eco tourism, sustainable travel and volunteering theme. Once again, community members have outdone themselves with their contributions. From "If you could nominate any living person as an 'environmental hero' who would it be and why?" questions on Thorn Tree forum to "Doing Good On Vacation in a Developing Country" Bluelists.
Suggestions, experiences, advice, videos, you name it. What are you waiting for? Get inspired with the August edition of Comet. Thanks for sharing!
