Responsible Visitor Charter
Four things you can do to help save the planet:
Here at INTX, we are working hard to be as green and sustainable as possible, but we need your help. We can all reduce our impact on the environment by making choices. As a visitor you have a very important role to play in helping the city you are visiting, conserve its natural assets and become a more sustainable destination.
Here are some ideas on how you can help while enjoying your trip:
- Support local businesses– During your visit, support local businesses as much as you can. Use local products, they give you a flavour of the real city you are in and help support local communities. If you are looking for recommendations on activities, we can recommend some local tour guides and activities to take part in.
- Practice sustainability where you are staying– Whether you are staying at a hotel, renting a place or staying with family, you can practice sustainability within your surroundings. Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth and adhere to towel policies or other water saving initiatives. Support your accommodation’s efforts to recycle and reduce the use of overly packaged goods. www.recyclenow.com
- Respect nature – Help us to look after the landscape and wildlife by not littering, guarding against fire and using footpaths and cycleways responsibly. Ensure you follow the Countryside Code www.countrysideaccess.gov.uk
- Green Tourism – This is the go-to standard for sustainability, look out for the symbol and please support those businesses that are working to reduce their carbon footprint. The award is also open to tour operators, visitor attractions, activity providers, accommodation providers, restaurants, and other businesses. http://www.green-tourism.com/
Most importantly have a great time wherever you are, we’d like to help you with your transport needs again!
Finally, if you feel there is anything else we could be doing to reduce our environmental impact please let us know.
