Rome is one of the world’s large tourist destinations. The city’s seductive Old World atmosphere, with more than 2,000 years of record, art, religion and food, draws hordes of camera-toting invaders. However, it is still possible to have a quiet, environmentally friendly trip to the Eternal City.
You wouldn’t have to stay long in Rome to realize that eating is a main part of life there. Luckily, food is one of the city’s most environmentally friendly aspects. Nowhere else in the world is such a premium put on new, locally sourced ingredients. For visitors to Rome, even gluttony can be green.
With a host of green transit options, from walking to trams to Vespas, it is easy to keep your commutes clean. Green hotels (including one that takes recycling to the extreme — see below) and a unique approach to sustainability lift Rome above several of Europe’s other urban destinations in terms of environmental friendliness.
