Talk:Ecotourism
From Wikitravel
I'm not thrilled with the list of external links here -- I'd rather we discussed the principles of ecotourism, rather than make a Web directory. --Evan 11:05, 28 December 2006 (EST)
- Me too. National ecotourism umbrella orgs should move to the countries' articles, this should just link to the countries in question, like we do for Scuba diving etc. Jpatokal 23:23, 28 December 2006 (EST)
[edit] Hitchhiking
Why does hitchhiking have lower emissions than taking a bus or a train? It seems to me that they'd all be in the same class (there's a vehicle that's already going somewhere, and it's not going to produce any more emissions just because you got on it).

- I guess that's because when there are more and more pessengers taking a train or a bus, they'd put more buses/trains into service, thus resulting in a higher emission figure. But no one really would start driving down the road with the sole intention of taking a hitchhiker.--Vidimian 07:23, 11 February 2009 (EST)
