Camping is the perfect opportunity to ditch the nasties, go green and set a precedent for the kids to follow. We're all doing our bit at home, recycling our waste, having a shorter shower, buying local, but its easier than you'd expect to do it when you're away as long as you have the facilities available to you when you're on holiday. Along with having the right equipment and appropriate facilities available to you, it might be helpful to read our Green Camping Holiday blog for some handy top tips.
