Campers are pretty good at keeping their carbon footprint to a minimum. Even so, it’s good to remember there is always room for improvement, especially on World Earth Day.
Below, we listed seven products, from solar chargers to waterless personal care products, that could help most campers be even greener. Ready to up your camping game in a way that’s also good for the planet?
1. Biodegradable Camping Utensils
Instead of using single-use plastic utensils, campers can opt for biodegradable alternatives made from materials like bamboo or cornstarch. These utensils break down naturally over time, reducing environmental impact.
2. Solar-Powered Lanterns
Often not quite as compact astorchesorheadlamps, but solar-poweredcamping lanternscan harness energy from the sun during the day to provide illumination at night. They eliminate the need for disposable batteries and reduce reliance on traditional energy sources, making them eco-friendly options for lighting up campsites.
