Summer is the perfect time to explore nature and enjoy the outside with friends and family. One particular activity which really helps you to relax and have fun outdoors is camping. Many popular destinations around the country-side earn praise for being Eco-Friendly and promoting recycling, therefore it is important to be as environmentally conscious as possible when out and about.
You can not go wrong with a simple tent or two, depending on how many people are planning to camp with you. They are the most green-friendly option. Just remember to choose an area that is away from any wildlife, you do not want to disrupt animals habitats.
Bring recycling equipment with you so nothing is left behind when you are heading home. To many people are careless and then to toss items aside with no regard as to where they might end up. Bring bags to dispose of items so you wont have a problem.
Remember, like any good event or party avoid using plastic equipment. It may seem like the simplest option but they are quite harmful to the environment. Bring plates, cups and utensils that you can wash and use again. Pack them up safely so you can avoid any potential damage on the journey.
For any washing, choose biodegradable soaps. If preferable wash in your own basin, do not attempt to clean in any nearby lakes, rivers or even the ocean. Remember that animals drink from that water, keep it clean.
Finally, when you are out enjoying nature be sure to pick up any rubbish along the way and recycle or bin it. Every little helps to preserve the beauty of this shared planet.
