It's hard out there for an environmentally aware luxury traveler. Armed with the desire, and the means, to travel in style - yet also armed with the knowledge that disproportionate amounts of nonrenewable natural resources are used for the leisure of luxury travel - can lead to an uncomfortable feeling of guilt. And who needs guilt when taking a well-earned vacation? After all, leisure travel and luxury vacations are all about pampering and relaxation, not cognitive dissonance.
For sustainable tourism to have a positive effect, there's no need to sacrifice luxury in responsible leisure travel. A few minor changes in vacation plans, and travelers are already helping make the Earth a healthier place.
