GOING GREEN
The following attractions, accommodation, cafs, pubs and restaurants have been selected by Lonely
Planet authors because they demonstrate a commitment to sustainability. Weve selected hotels,
pubs and restaurants for their support of local producers or their devotion to the slow food cause
so they might serve only seasonal, locally sourced produce on their menus. Weve also highlighted
farmers markets and the local producers themselves. In addition, weve covered accommodation
that we deem to be environmentally friendly, for example for their commitment to recycling or
energy conservation. Attractions are listed because theyre involved in conservation or environmental
education or have been given an ecological award (for example, Blue Flag beaches).
For more tips about travelling sustainably in Ireland, turn to the Getting Started chapter (p21).
We want to keep developing our sustainable-travel content. If you think weve omitted someone
who should be listed here, or if you disagree with our choices, email us at talk2us@lonelyplanet
.com.au and set us straight for next time. For more information about sustainable tourism and
