Travel Carefully |
| |
When traveling, you often happen to forget many things at home. However, there is something you should never forget: respect for the place you are visiting and for its inhabitants. We are not just talking about polluting (albeit important), but also of respecting our hosts’ native culture and behaving like members of the community, not like tourists.
This different approach to vacation, which goes beyond mere fun, transforms your trip into life experience, to grow and understand yourself to enrich you and us Sardinians. |

Towards a more attentive and responsible "ecoturismo" |
| |
The necessity to assure the preservation and the increase in value of the Sardinian natural patrimony with all its elements (landscapes, flora, fauna, ecological equilibrium) has made possible that new protected areas are borned. And since parks, in the most general meaning, both national parks or protected marine areas are instituted, they are having a great increase in value which has brought to a positive signal of a different environmental sensitivity.
So that this is the right occasion to put the acquired experience to an attentive and responsible “ecoturismo”, a real value of sustainable development. The users of these areas are responsible in order to limit the consequences in terms of impact on the environment, following a consciousness and respectful way of make use of the environment.
This small “ecoturista” memorandum wants to emphasize the fundamental points through that it is possible realize a visit in these areas in a responsible way. |

Responsible behaviour Code of the "ecoturista" about increase in value, protection and fruition of the environmental sites:
1. Before to visit an area of particular environmental interest is important to ask for and receive information about territorial contest and about the naturalistic relevance which represent,
2. When choosing a guide or a courier it is better to choose local operators or guide,
3. Remember to leave places where you can take a break to eat cleaned, throwing the rubbish in the litter bin,
4. If the there’s no basket for the bin we must remember to bring the rubbish with us and if necessary sign the missing to the personnel in command of the local organization, |

5. Don’t leave around tins or plastic bags and bottles: plastic is not biodegradable and it needs many years to disperse,
6. Remember to choose a responsible behaviour deciding not to smoke during the excursions: the stubs of cigarettes still light on the floor can starts dangerous fires,
7. Remember not to disturb the animals specially if you are in an particular species repopulation area trying to stay at a right distance and avoiding every action not fitted for the site ( making a din or shouting),
8. Remember to choose a respectful behaviour: don’t pick flowers you can see during your visit, often are rare and protected,
9. Don’t cut into tree trunks with unuseful inscriptions to mark oneself passage in that zone. It is only a uncivilized behaviour,
10. After your visit remember to become “messenger” of the site: report to your parents, friends and about the natural beauty you have seen. |
