After watching Seaspiracy on Netflix, I have a whole new view of this Eco-friendly travel concept. First of all, I think I am done eating any kind of seafood, sigh. However, the fishing industry and cartel isn’t the only problem out there – plastics are still a huge problem, not to mention all the chemicals we dump into the environment.
As responsible citizens, everyone should contribute to an environmental-friendly lifestyle in their own small ways. After all, a little often, equals much. As tourists, if we all can be a little proactive when we travel, it will collectively make a difference.

Mother’s Vault Bamboo Toothbrush
These eco-friendly bamboo handles of this toothbrush are lightweight and comfortable. Beeswax coating avoids breakage making your bamboo toothbrush smooth and durable. The handles are somewhat curved for a snug fit and better brush control. The wavy design of this toothbrush helps your gums to remove plaque and bacteria from your teeth.
If you think about how a toothbrush is only supposed to last 6 months — and you get your first one when you are around 3-year-old, then that means the average person puts 134 toothbrushes into the landfills by the time they are 70. If you don’t think that looks like very many – put 134 toothbrushes into your shopping cart the next time you are at Wlagreens or CVS.
