Green Tips for Camping |
Before you head out to one of Canada's beautiful parks for that much anticipated camping trip, consider the following tips that will enhance your camping experience and care for the environment.
Remember that you're going to enjoy nature and that means caring for the environment, so that others can have the same experience after you've left.
We all know the cardinal rule "Leave the area just as you found it," but here some other tips to keep in mind on your camping trip:
Use reusable dishes
Do not use styrofoam and plastic picnic dishes and flatware. Washing dishes can be a chore, but it will reduce the amount of garbage you produce onsite.
Sort your garbage
Bringing different waste bags to separate food scraps and other garbage from paper waste can be helpful. When sorted, recycled fibre paper napkins like those from White Swan, can multitask to help you start a campfire later.
Repackage food
Remove all food packaging and repack it in reusable containers. Don't bring individual packed food items, and clean up all food scraps while camping. Food left out will attract unwanted wildlife.
Meal time
When eating, be sure to use White Swan napkins to help keep mess to a minimum. Made from 100 per cent recycled paper and created using environmentally sustainable manufacturing process, they have less of an impact on the environment.
Bathroom Etiquette
Bring and use one-ply products like White Swan bathroom tissue because it's made from 100 per cent recycled fibre, and breaks down faster.
