What about a green travel?


Is green travel really dead or is it just being pushed to far when one of MSN writers mention that it is totally dead? Well, I must agree that it used to be much better in the past and we now don't pay as much attention to the nature as we used too... Anyway, if you want to read the original text:

"Green travel is dead.

I arrived at this unlikely conclusion while talking with Mike Ragsdale, the “town evangelist” for a seaside community in Northwest Florida called Alys Beach. “People think being green means making sacrifices or paying more,” he told me. “That’s not necessarily true.”

Apparently, a lot of travelers feel the same way. A vast majority of them — 85 percent — consider themselves to be “environmentally conscious,” according to a recent YPartnership survey. Yet most of them now say they’re unwilling to pay a premium for being green. They expect them to be good stewards of the environment in which they operate, according to the study."
