Three Reasons Why Glamping is Better for the Environment

When traveling there are two basic options for lodging: you can either stay in a hotel or camp. Staying in a hotel is nice because you have access to a clean bathroom, a shower, and even a comfy bed, however, one major drawback to staying in a hotel is the negative impact they have on the environment.
