Going RVing can be as green as you want it to be

Alana Fontaine, spokeswoman for Go RVing Canada, says more RVers today are asking how they can enjoy their vacations without leaving a big ecological footprint.

The solution, she says, is simply to have an open mind and make some small, easy changes. For one, try camping close to home.

"Gasoline prices and emissions, of course, are becoming huge topics of conversation these days," Fontaine says.

"So RVers are starting to monitor their trips more. They're staying on the roads less and staying parked at campgrounds longer."
