Green tourism in Vietnam driven by small sustainable actions

Green tourism in Vietnam is increasingly being driven by small-scale changes in traveler behavior and local management rather than large-scale investments. Key practices include reducing single-use plastics, limiting nylon bags, and conserving electricity and water to protect natural resources and cultural identity.

In areas like Xuan Son National Park, community-based tourism providers are implementing practical measures such as providing convenient trash bins and encouraging the use of reusable items. Local operators, including Dang Van Thu in Co village, note that tourists are becoming more proactive in environmental preservation by bringing personal water bottles and maintaining cleanliness to protect the local ecosystem.
