"As summer ramps up in the northern hemisphere, many of us will begin packing
suitcases, carry-ons and duffel bags as we prepare to head away on holiday.
Far too many clothes will be packed, of course, followed by sunglasses and
swimwear and sandals, last year's suntan lotion and a good book. A sweater or
jacket will probably be thrown in too, just in case. Perhaps, some of us will
reassess how much luggage we really need to take. Most will not.
But with more new ways to reduce your carbon footprint than ever before – and
some destinations toying with banning certain types of luggage outright –
stuffing your life in a suitcase may soon be a thing of the past. After all, by
packing less, we create fewer carbon emissions, reduce our travel footprint and
become more protective of nature.
To highlight how travelling sustainably first starts at home, here are some
places that are challenging the long-established idea of packing before you
leave – and offering shortcuts to a more streamlined holiday."
