Search for an Eco Hotel or green hotels in the region. Make sure that you have done the ground work and checked about the hotel and its amenities before booking. Some questions that you can ask is: Who runs the hotel? Is it locally owned or not? Go for hotel that is locally owned and operated, thereby contributing more to the local economy and development. Do they have any kind of recycling procedure in place? Many hotels will mention this on their website if it is a priority for them, e.g. the Marriott Spirit to Preserve. How do they contribute towards the energy consumption? Or even easier just ask how they contribute towards “Green Travel.” Most of the hotels are aware of this terminology and more often than not will welcome your questions.

Unfortunately Air Canada's prices are often pretty high - but this justifies it when it's one of the only options. I've never heard of Flygreen, but do a lot of traveling. Thanks so much! Great idea, these guys have. What a great idea! Unfortunately Air Canada’s prices are often pretty high – but this justifies it when it’s one of the only options.
