The first thing you can do is to pack smart; use as many eco friendly products as possible and carry only these products with you when traveling. Try to avoid use items that are not reusable such as plastic bottles or bags. You don’t have to buy toiletries that are travel sized before every vacation and are thrown away afterwards. Buy small bottle sets and fill them with the products that you would normally use; you can get these reusable travel bottles in any store. Here are some eco friendly travel products.
