Beware of Green Washing

Always book with hotels or tour companies who are legitimately touting either eco or sustainable tourism. If you're not sure if they're reputable, inquire with a watchdog agency such as Tourism Concern or Green Globe, or with a conservation organization such as World Wildlife Fund. All of them have been actively promoting clarity in standards for green tourism.
