Accommodation

住宿

When you are done travelling and you’ve arrived, keep up with your green habits. One of the biggest contributors to global warming is sloppy environmental practices at home, so you need to continue turning off lights and being good to the environment. This is especially important in poorer countries with underdeveloped infrastructure. You should remember that while your hotel has no shortage of water and electricity, the villagers nearby aren’t so fortunate.

当你旅行,到达某地的时候,保持你环保的习惯。去全球变暖的罪魁祸首之一就是在家的马虎行为,你应该继续关灯,关怀环境。在那些基础建设不发达的贫穷国家,这尤其重要。你应该记住,对然你的旅馆不会缺水断电,周围的村民可没这么幸运。

28. Hotel: During your hotel stay, try not to waste energy unnecessarily by continuing what you perhaps already practice at home. You can do this by turning off the tv, switching all the lights off and turning the A/C or heat down where you go out. Also, you could opt for short showers and use your own toiletries instead of the small and usually over-packaged small hotel toiletries.

28.旅馆:呆在旅馆的时候,别像在家那样浪费不必要用的能源。出门的时候关上电视机、灯、空调和暖气。另外,你可以选择快读洗个澡,用自己的化妆品,而不是旅馆里提供的小包装化妆品。

29. Stay green: There are lots of green hotels around the world. Why not stay somewhere that actively promotes the green lifestyle when you’re away?

29.住环保旅馆:世界上有很多环保旅馆。离家的时候,为什么不住在那些可以积极促进环保生活方式的地方呢?

30. Taking home memories: Avoid disposable cameras and bring your own digital camera. Like any other modern device which takes loads of energy to make and only get used once before being dumped, disposable cameras are rather wasteful.

30. 把记忆带回家:别用拍立得,带着你自己的数码相机。想其他花费大量能源却一次性的现代器械一样,拍立得相机是一种浪费。
