Climbers have the opportunity to be closest to the environment. They can feel how nature breathes and how does it function so efficiently. Not only does it help in pervading the monotony of our daily lives, but at the same time, it is helpful in refreshing our minds. In hiking, we climb upon remote trails, perch upon ledges, sometimes eat wild plants and sleep on the ground. In the due process of these occurrences, we totally forget about the drastic consequences which humans are bringing upon the environment.

Be a Responsible Gear User

Whenever I go for buying accessories, I make sure that I first check-out that the needful items are available in the second-hand store. If they are not, only then I barge upon the road of buying all new items. After using those, I make sure that I give them to the needy ones. One should remember the obvious fact that we have the duty to not only use the resources but use them in such a way such that they are available for the future generations too.

 

Reduce Your Impact at Crags

Make sure that you are reducing the impact on the crags. Just travelling at lengths can give you a respite from the monotony but at the same time, caring about our environment can help in achieving twin goals.

Look at the Big Picture

To be able to care about the environment, you are not needed to be an environmentalist, but you are just needed to try your own part efficiently. You can carry your own jute bag and say “no” to the plastic bags. Taking this small step will make a huge impact on the nature. You can stop driving your vehicle to the office, try pooling with others. This will not only be helpful in cutting the costs but also reduce the impact of harmful gases on the environment

Apart from that, you can use your cycle to visit local or nearby places. This will make you healthy as well as help in making you the game-changer for the environment.

Finally, these are some of the things which you can keep in your mind while you go on exploring new places. This small step would be instilling huge chunks of confidence in you. So, next time you travel, keep a tap on above mentioned points.
