Ecotourism. Planet-friendly travel? That’s what the name implies, but unless you’re an avid traveler, you may have only heard this term in passing. More likely, you’ve heard a popular nickname—ethical vacation, sustainable tourism, or mindful travel. All of these terms encompass the same general idea: travel in a way that’s helpful, not harmful. Whether you’re traveling to a golden beach in Southern Italy or to a dazzling Arctic snowscape, ecotourism entails that you act considerately toward the local environment and culture.
