Eco-friendly accommodations are lodging options designed to minimize their environmental impact. These places often use sustainable materials, energy-efficient appliances, and water-saving fixtures. They may also incorporate renewable energy sources, such as solar panels, to reduce their carbon footprint. Many eco-friendly accommodations promote local culture and biodiversity by sourcing food from nearby farms and supporting local artisans. Guests can enjoy nature while participating in activities that respect the environment, such as hiking or wildlife watching. Popular examples include eco-lodges, green hotels, and sustainable resorts.
