I don’t know about you but the first thing I think of when going on vacation or as our friends across the pond call it, “Holiday” is how can I reduce my carbon footprint? Alright, so I don’t. However there seems to be a growing contingent of environmentally conscience, and no doubt repugnant, hippies who enjoy reducing their carbon foot print by exposing the rest of the world to their pink parts. Yes, my friends it has come to this. Going nude to Save The World. There has to be another way.
“Going without clothes on beaches and other vacation spots is commonly called naturism — a description that implies helping the planet, as some practitioners claim to be doing. Spending more time with nothing on stems waste and pollution in all sorts of ways, according to an article by Kathy Blanchard on The Naturist Society’s Web site. “Living more hours naked each day results in a dramatic drop in my laundry, which in turn reduces my water and energy use (along with my related bills),” Ms. Blanchard wrote. “It also reduces the amount of soap I release, in my case, into the Puget Sound.” She also advocates naturist holidays — staying close to home wherever possible, to cut down on fuel usage — but sometimes traveling to places where it is possible to leave the car behind and backpack or paddle naked into the wild.”
Nudist Holiday’s might be environmentally friendly but that doesn’t make them right. Just keep it in the hotel room people.
