GOING GREENLonely Planet defines sustainable tourism in three key areas: environmental (eg organic foodstores or hotels with energy-saving policies), social/cultural (eg organizations that support local cultural traditions) and economic (eg businesses whose profits benefit the local community). Providing our readers with a guide to sustainable content is a continuous process, and we’d love it if readers would tell us how we’re doing. Send us your feedback at www.lonelyplanet.com/feedback. For more information on sustainable travel, visit www.lonelyplanet.com/responsibletravel.
