10 Real-World Ways to Go Green

It's easy to help the environment (and your budget, in many cases) while enjoying a great vacation, having a fine meal or hanging out with the neighbors. Check out these 10 practical ideas.

5: Try a green getaway

It's getting easier all the time to vacation in places that provide a great escape and a conservation-savvy approach. If you're visiting Wisconsin, look for the Travel Green Wisconsin certification on hotels, attractions, public gardens, golf courses, cafes, campgrounds and more. Businesses earn points in the program through an evaluation process that reviews details such as water consumption and recycling programs. The more points a business has, the greener it is.

Find certified locations at 800/432-8747 and travelgreenwisconsin.com. Among those on the list: Journey Inn (left), an eco-retreat that features a learning center, retreat and natural spa.
