One of the very best parts of traveling to new destinations is the opportunity to appreciate the landscape. And yet, some forms of travel can actually harm the environment if people aren’t mindful of their impact. Fortunately, thanks to the organization called Pledge For The Wild, travelers can make a big difference at a low cost.
Pledge For The Wild, also known as Pledge Wild, is a group of beloved mountain towns in the west that are committed to preserving their natural landscapes.
