Know your IMPACKT - our tips for sustainable travel
- Do it yourself: Instead of booking a package tour, put together your own vacation. This way, you can consider environmental aspects and discover consciously chosen cafés and restaurants in the region to support the local population.
- The sustainability seal: When booking, look out for the seal of greensign.de, for example. Travel portals are also identified by certain environmental seals such as TourCert, as an established seal for sustainable tourism. You can also trust Viabono, it was created by the Federal Environment Agency.
- Reduce luggage: Lighter luggage not only means more flexibility through better transport circumstances, it also saves CO2. Because heavy luggage causes higher fuel consumption. Packing only what you really need saves gasoline and energy - whether you're traveling by car, train, plane or ship.
- Use sustainable suitcases: IMPACKT suitcases are particularly robust and durable due to our exclusive material composition. Their durability saves you from having to buy more, as these suitcases will last you a long time. Also, their production causes far less resources than the production of luggage from completely new materials.
- Use bicycles and public transport: If you use these instead of a rental car, not only will you save money, but the environment will thank you for this more sustainable step.
- Avoid waste: Sustainable travel and littering don't go together. Therefore, avoid garbage and dispose of it properly, if any should still arise.
- Offset CO2 emissions: Many non-profit organizations offer you the opportunity to offset CO2 emissions by making a donation, for example. They offer CO2 neutralization through tree planting projects or generate electricity from renewable energies. You can also have Ecopassenger calculate the ecological footprint of your trip. Thanks to this, you can make comparisons on how to get to your destination in the most environmentally friendly way.
- Choose nearby destinations: Traveling within Europe will save you time, money and CO2. You can also find numerous wonderful vacation destinations in your home country. A relaxing break and action-packed experiences can also be discovered near you.
