Save Environment

How to save environment in Rishikesh , eco tourism is more than a catch phrase to mean outdoor exploration. eco tourism practices are sound measures such as carrying out or disposable of garbage and burning no wood on the tail. ask your trekking[1] agent and lodge operator about their management policies. rafting in rishikesh may cost a little more but is much better for the environment.

Litter free: Carry all your trash (including toilet paper, unless you thoroughly burn it on the spot) to your campsite, lodge or hotel for proper disposal. if trekking with an agency, ask the employees to designate separate places for biodegradable and others (i.e., foil, batteries, bottles, tins, plastics, etc.). as fires are measured sacred, do not put garbage in the flames until the cooking is completed and forever inquire first.

Lady Details: Tampons and sanitary napkins should be enfolding well and packed out.

Toilet Sites: Confirm your trek operator provides a toilet tent, set up at least 50 meters (150 feet) away from any water source. or else, pick a spot away from water and religious places. bury all excreta. in the cities and en route, public toilets are hard to find so be discreet and keep away from holy places.

Biodegradable Washing[2]: When washing clothes or bathing near streams, make use of biodegradable soaps and a pan for rinsing.

Use Established Campsites: Encourage your trekking employees to camp in established campsites and to leave no trace: no trash, no tent trenches, no fire pit, and a toilet pit filled in to look as it did earlier than digging.

Cook With Kerosene: If you are camping[3], request that cooking be done on gas and kerosene, not wood. if you are stuck using wood, decrease the amount by using iodine to treat water rather than boiling it. select lodges that use kerosene or fuel efficient stoves, like the back boiler which heats water while food cooks. you can as well decrease firewood consumption by ordering the same food at the same time as others.

Solar Heated Showers: Limit your hot showers to those heated by Solar Energy Solar Energy, Solar energy is radiant light and heat from the sun harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as solar heating, photovoltaics, solar thermal energy, solar architecture and artificial photosynthesis.It is an important source of renewable energy and its technologies are broadly characterized as either passive solar or active solar depending on the way they capture and distribute solar energy or convert it into solar power. Active solar techniques include the use of photovoltaic systems, concentrated solar power and solar water heating to harness the energy.
