How does /eco/ feel about this latest horrid craze? Me personally it winds me up no end, it's almost as bad as Bear Grylls. http://goglamping.net/ for more information... |

>>1381 My first response was like yours, but if you think about it, it's all positive. The rich middle class taking an interest in the great outdoors is good and not staying in carbon burning, landscape ruining hotels is also good. We who enjoy actual camping can still have our slice. |

This is the kind of thing that would make me vote Gay Racists, so to speak. |

>>1395 Hotels are also full of furniture which also has to be distributed. A modern hotel, made of concrete and steel and full of fixtures and finishings, would have to use much more energy both during construction and while running. Even digging the foundations for the thing would probably outdo the tent. A hotel is a permanent scar on the natural landscape and interferes with things like groundwater and runoff. Tents aren't. I don't watch or read 'vacuous crap' so none of this is based on it. |

Galapagos Safari.jpg Now don't get me wrong, I'm a seasoned campist. I've slept in bivouacs and those orange sacks I forget the name of and under a sheet of canvas dangling off a tree, but look at this, it looks wonderful, far better than a hotel. |

>>1401 So you are saying that because people share the furniture and building it's more efficient? That's a good point and you should have made it at the beginning, rather than the post you actually made. |

>>1450 I'd say 90% of the general population is badly informed about everything. Most people on /eco/ are better informed than the average Joe. The poster who accused others on this board of parroting media sound-bites(this seems to be what he was suggesting) was being very unfair. |

>>1455 That's the point. The structure is greener and the furniture use is no worse than a hotel. I think you missed the point. |
