FOXNews Sort of Right on Ecotourism

Monday, June 8, 2009

flyingpigWell, we saw some cute little porkers flapping up in the sky earlier today so it would stand to reason that we are actually in agreement  with something that FOXNews has written.

Their new article on ecotourism is surprisingly insightful, discussing the fact that many tours touting themselves as eco-tours are far from environmentally and socially conscious.  It discusses the lack of a universal certification system for eco-friendly companies, lodging, etc. and that tourists must do their own research and act in a responsible way while traveling.

We couldn’t agree more.  (oink, oink, flap, flap)
