For example, a company should be able to show that funds from a trip go directly to the local community -- this includes employing locals and using lodging and food from the area. The society also recommends asking tour operators about what they do for local conservation. Find out if they donate money to local organizations that concentrate on environmental concerns, or if the operators have established local conservation projects.

The dream of a rain forest saved by children began in 1987 at a small primary school in rural Sweden. The study of tropical forests prompted nine-year-old Roland Tiensuu to ask what he could do to keep the rain forest and the animals who live in it safe from destruction? A campaign raised money to help the Monteverde Conservation League buy and save threatened rain forest in Costa Rica. Roland and his classmates raised enough money to buy 15 acres(6 hectares) of rain forest. Costa Rican and international staff and volunteers work throughout the zone in forest preservation, reforestation, environmental education, and sustainable development. Called Bosque Eterno de los Ninos(Children's Eternal Forest), it is the first international children's rain forest in the world, a rain forest being saved by and for children, for the planet itself, for now and for tomorrow.
