LET YOUR<br />
(ECO) CONSCIENCE<br />
IN WISCONSIN<br />
April 22, 1970. The first Earth Day.<br />
Founded by Senator Gaylord Nelson <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Wisconsin</strong> to raise environmental<br />
consciousness.<br />
<strong>Wisconsin</strong>ites continue to dig in to the<br />
Earth Day tenets <strong>of</strong> preserving the<br />
environment and enhancing our quality<br />
<strong>of</strong> life.<br />
That brings us to the notion <strong>of</strong> an ec<strong>of</strong>riendly<br />
vacation, a concept the <strong>Wisconsin</strong><br />
<strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Tourism</strong> pioneered when it<br />
launched Travel Green <strong>Wisconsin</strong> in<br />
2006. Travel Green was the first<br />
certification program in the country that<br />
went beyond accommodations to include<br />
tourism businesses <strong>of</strong> all sorts – events,<br />
attractions, restaurants, and everything in<br />
between.<br />
So if leaving a lighter footprint is important<br />
to you, then consider patronizing the<br />
hundreds <strong>of</strong> Travel Green <strong>Wisconsin</strong> TM<br />
certified businesses when visiting.<br />
Visit travelwisconsin.com for a listing.<br />
To summarize: Go green. Have fun.<br />
Rest easy.
