Dos

•   Carry back all non-degradable litter such as empty bottles, tins, plastic bags etc. These must not litter
    the environment or be buried. They must be disposed in municipal dustbins only.

•   Observe the sanctity of holy sites, temples and local cultures.

•   Cut noise pollution. Do not blare aloud radios, tape recorders or other electronic entertainment
    equipment in nature resorts, sanctuaries and wildlife parks.

•   In case temporary toilets are set-up near campsites, after defecation, cover with mud or sand. Make
    sure that the spot is at least 30 meters away from the water source.

•   Respect people's privacy while taking photographs. Ask for prior permission before taking a photograph.

Don'ts

•   Do not take away flora and fauna in the forms of cuttings, seeds or roots. It is illegal, especially in the
    Himalayas. The environment is really delicate in this region and the bio-diversity of the region has to be
    protected at all costs.

•   Do not use pollutants such as detergent, in streams or springs while washing and bathing.

•   Do not use wood as fuel to cook food at the campsite.

•   Do not leave cigarettes butts or make open fires in the forests.

•   Do not consume aerated drinks, alcohol, drugs or any other intoxicant and throw bottles in the wild.

•   Do not tempt the locals, especially children by offering them foodstuff or sweets. Respect local
    traditions.

•   Polythene and plastics are non bio-degradable and unhealthy for the environment and must not be
    used and littered.
