Organic Places to Stay in the UK by Linda Moss is a wonderful resource for anyone who wants to leave a smaller carbon footprint
on their next vacation. This 2nd edition features over 500 photographs of beautiful eco-friendly places to stay all over the United Kingdom.
After

she was kind enough to send us an advance copy to give away to our Ecollo readers!

Story Submission Guidelines
1. The story should be interesting and new and keeping with the themes of other stories on Ecollo.
2. Remember: spell checker is your friend!
3. If your story references a specific news story or blog, be sure to include a link in the URL field.
4. Obscene images, offensive or outright profane language is not acceptible. (duh) On the flip side of that: clever, witty, and funny language is welcomed.
5. If you're including a video link, be sure to check that it's embeddable video. We like to host clips through
Ecollo to give our audience one-click access. Also, we prefer videos that do not contain a bunch of leading commercials.

7. If you've produced an original image, Google "image hosting"
to find an online provider of free image hosting.
