Ecofriendly travel accessories<\/strong> are items that can make tourism less wasteful, and thereby produce positive effects<\/strong> on the environment. Most long-distance\u00a0trips<\/strong> and vacations heavily contribute to carbon emissions<\/a> in the atmosphere. However, sustainable practices<\/strong><\/a> and gear can make travel<\/strong> a lot greener<\/strong>. When you visit destinations that preserve wildlife<\/a>, don\u2019t let your lifestyle be the reason for their contamination. By investing in eco-friendly travel gear and accessories, you can reduce exploitation of earth\u2019s resources, as well as set a great example!<\/p>\n

1. Bamboo Toothbrush<\/h2>\n

Toothbrushes are among the essentials of travelling, and they do not take up much space in luggage. However, the average consumer toothbrush is made of plastic<\/strong> and discarded after three to six months of usage. This poses a huge environmental problem<\/strong>, given the innumerable number of toothbrushes that end up in landfills every day. Bamboo brushes are light, organic, and just as effective; it\u2019s a wonder the world hasn\u2019t switched to them permanently yet.<\/p>\n

2. Silicone or Stainless Steel Water Bottles<\/h2>\n

Disposable plastic bottles<\/a><\/strong> are an abomination of the modern society. They take hundreds to thousands of years to disintegrate<\/strong><\/a>, becoming a colossal burden to the earth\u2019s capacity. Plastic debris in oceans kills about a million marine animals every year. Silicone and stainless steel bottles are not just durable and environmentally friendly, but also keep your drink hot or cold for longer.<\/p>\n

3. Sustainable Shopping Bags<\/h2>\n

No trip is complete without shopping from the local markets. Carry a few reusable bags<\/strong>, so you don\u2019t need the conventional plastic bags to carry your things. Shopping bags made from cloth or other recycled materials are rather hardwearing as well.<\/p>\n

4. Solid Toiletries<\/h2>\n

Soap, shampoo, and deodorant are available as solid bars<\/strong>, which are a lot easier to fit into a bag and they never make a mess. They last a long time<\/strong>, and lack undesirable plastic packaging. Always select toiletries that are free of hazardous chemicals.<\/p>\n

5. Reusable Straws<\/h2>\n

One can manage a drink without a straw, but if you really need one, then opt for a reusable one. You will easily find some made of thick plastic, stainless steel, or bamboo. Disposable plastic straws are a plague for our environment<\/strong> (not exaggerating).<\/p>\n

6. Reusable cutlery and utensils<\/h2>\n

Instead of depending on disposable plates, cups, spoons and forks, you can just take some of your regular home utensils and cutlery on the trip. They may be a bit heavier, but they make an even bigger difference. You could also invest in a bamboo tableware set, which is light and organic<\/a>.<\/p>\n

7. Solar Power Banks<\/h2>\n

You can easily buy a portable solar power bank for around $30. It is highly convenient, utilizes renewable energy<\/a>, and very useful for keeping all your mobile devices charged during outdoor expeditions.<\/p>\n

8. Recycled Toilet Paper<\/h2>\n

Recycled toilet paper is cheaper and a lot lighter on the environment. You will save money and preserve the earth\u2019s resources at the same time.<\/p>\n

9. Reusable Makeup Wipes<\/h2>\n

Disposable makeup wipes are handy, but you may not know that they are manufactured from an unholy combination of non-biodegradable plastic fibers that take forever to breakdown. In contrast, reusable\/washable makeup wipes are much more hygienic and luxurious<\/strong> for the skin. They are made from organic or sustainable microfibers that are great for you and the environment.<\/p>\n

10. Bee Wax Wraps<\/h2>\n

If you are planning to take some snacks or sandwiches for the journey, replace plastic-based wraps with organic bee wax wraps. These wraps are washable and compostable<\/strong>, which makes them ideal for everyday use.<\/p>\n
