Tips to Travel Sustainably
|
|
Visiting somewhere as vast and untamed as Alaska comes with a certain responsibility. Alaska’s rugged landscape is not immune to the effects of climate change, but there are simple steps every traveler can take to protect this land for future generations:
1. Understanding the culture by talking to locals and visiting historic museums or cultural centers.
2. Support locally owned and operated businesses – including restaurants, tour operators, and boutiques – whenever you can.
3. Look for three symbols that guarantee the product was "Made in Alaska," "Grown in Alaska" or made by Alaska Native artists through the "Silver Hand Program."
4. Leave no
trace when exiting a site.
5. Be a responsible wildlife viewer by brushing up on the code of ethics produced by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game.
