The following have been selected by Lonely Planet authors because they demonstrate a commit- ment to sustainability. We’ve selected cafés and restaurants for their support of local producers – so they might serve only seasonal, locally sourced produce on their menus. We’ve also highlighted farmers markets and the local producers themselves. In addition, we’ve covered accommodation that we deem to be environmentally friendly, for example for their commitment to recycling or energy conservation. Attractions are listed because they’re involved in conservation or environ- mental education or have been given an ecological award. For more tips about travelling sustain- ably in Switzerland, turn to the Getting Started chapter ( p17 ). We want to keep developing our sustainable-travel content.
