Outdoor ethics is a set of principles and values that guide behaviors and actions in outdoor activities, in order to minimize negative impact on the natural environment and preserve ecosystems. Here are some outdoor ethical principles:
- Respect for the environment: This involves minimizing negative impacts on the natural environment, including avoiding leaving waste and traces of one's presence.
- Protection of ecosystems: It is important to preserve natural ecosystems, not disturb animals, and not damage plants and natural habitats.
- If you need to relieve yourself in nature, be sure to dig a hole at least 15 cm deep and cover your excrement with soil. Remember to wash your hands afterwards.
- Avoid wet wipes and toilet paper. If you must use them, be sure to dispose of them in an appropriate trash bin or take them with you until you can dispose of them properly.
By following these outdoor ethical principles, people can engage in outdoor activities while preserving the natural environment and minimizing negative impacts on it.
