Tips for Traveling Green on the Half Moon Bay Coastside
Brought to you by the
Half Moon Bay Coastside Chamber of Commerce & Visitors' Bureau
- Stop by the Chamber of Commerce office, the Kiosk or visit
www.hmbchamber.com to get a list of green businesses in the area.
-
Patronize/visit businesses that are environmentally friendly. Ask businesses about their commitment to eco-friendly practices.
-
Take time to learn about the local history, local plants and wildlife on the Coast and teach this to your children.
-
Buy our locally grown produce and foods for your outing and park, walk or rent a bike to get around. You'll see more and conserve fuel!
-
Leave natural treasures such as rocks, shells, plants, insects or wildlife where you found them for others to enjoy.
-
Stay on established trails and off of fragile cliff, bluff, and sensitive habitat areas which will erode and can not be repaired.
- Respect wildlife. Give wildlife plenty of space to be wild. Keep your dogs on a leash, off of bluffs and away from wildlife. Clean up after your dog.
- Recycle: Pack out all your trash for recycling, especially on or near beach areas where it can wash into the sea and harm sea life. While you're at it, why not pick up other trash to leave the beach even more beautiful.
-
Reduce: Save precious water by asking for it only when needed in restaurants.
- Reuse: Use your reusable souvenir tote bag for shopping and carrying your picnic supplies. Reuse hotel towels & linens to save water and energy.
*Your conservation of our precious resources makes them available for others to enjoy.
