If possible, try to bring only a few essentials as well as clothes that you can wear multiple times and are easy to wash on the go. Another way to ensure sustainable travel is by flying economy. This is because more people are able to fit in one flight and therefore fewer planes are needed. Fewer planes in the sky means less carbon emissions.
