Code Green: Experiences of a Lifetime
 The Basics: Title: Code Green: Experiences of a Lifetime Author: Kerry Lorimer, Lonely Planet URL: Find it at your local library. Date: 2006 Notes: At a Glance: This book offers suggestions for vacation destinations that contribute to sustainability in various ways. A wide range of experiences are highlighted, from grass roots volunteer opportunities, to luxury resorts. In addition to bringing to light the sustainable characteristics of a trip, this guide offers basic information about travel logistics. Also included are photographs and travel writing that present breath-taking portraits of some exotic locations. Best for: This book is best for travelers who are looking for a memorable experience that contributes to a greener environment, but still want some luxury on their vacations. It offers the reader a good definition of ecotourism, and is clear about the basic requirements for sustainability on the (proverbial) road: helps the environment, culture, and economy. Standout Features: The photographs make this book not just another travel guide, and it offers sensible travel advice along with the ideological thrust of ecotourism. Keep in Mind: The publisher is Lonely Planet, which is an independently owned travel guide publisher. The guidebooks began with a minimalist, off the beaten path approach, appealing to young backpackers. Recently, the scope of the books has been expanded to include awareness issues, and advice for almost any demographic. Suggested by: kzimm |
