South Korea is taking steps to make itself a more environmentally friendly country (see p66 ). The following is an index of the local businesses, events and organisations that have been selected by Lonely Planet authors because they demonstrate a commitment to preserving or improving the natural environment, enabling greater cultural understanding and generally contributing towards sustainability. Among the listings you’ll find national parks, restaurants that specialise in organic produce, and hotels and other businesses that take into account the environmental impact of their operations and seek to minimise this. The index is not exhaustive but does provide a place to start for those who like to make informed choices in how they spend their holiday time and money.

Choosing sustainable travel products, just like running a business that tries to be eco-friendly, is not an exact science and is also a continuous process. We know we haven’t got it 100% right yet! We very much welcome feedback on our selections via www.lonelyplanet.com/feedback as well as recommendations for anything that we should be including in this list the next time around. For more information on travelling responsibly see p15 and www.lonelyplanet.com/responsibletravel.
