Hotels are changing their wasteful habits and getting involved in the move to save the environment. At most hotels throughout the world, guests are being greeted by shampoo and mouthwash in glass dispensers instead of elaborate plastic bottles. Guests can find recycling bins in their rooms and are encouraged to use towels more than once before they are washed.

This green movement is becoming increasingly popular among tourists who look for service providers with an environmental conscience. The business of eco-tours is growing rapidly. Travel agents are booking clients on “Save the Rainforest” expeditions and similar trips whose emphasis is on protecting the world. The tourists on these trips are given lectures on the effects of the loss of our planet’s natural wonders and what they can do to reverse the trend. The travelers on these excursions are already committed to environmental protection.
