Our goal to becomE
the worlds most earth positive adventure company…
The travel industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world. We want to change that and act as positive inspiration for travellers and other travel companies.
We believe that we can create an adventure company that has a far greater positive impact on the planet, than the carbon footprint it leaves, and this is our plan…
Transport
Make every flight count - Flights are our biggest oxymoron. Our awareness and subsequent action was only made real by first hand witness to devastating effects of human activity (See 10 hours of Palm oil in Borneo[blog post link], and dynamite fishing the in Philippines[Blog post link]). Also in equal measures our connection to the planet comes though experiencing incredible things all across it. We believe that people are far more likely to protect something when they truly connect with it. (Surfers Against Sewage ect.) So experiencing the planets wonders is crucial to this. We want people to make every flight really count. So instead of being like a normal travel company and trying to sell as many trips as possible to increase our profits, we will only be running a minimal amount of trips, that will only be available once per year. These trips will be once in a lifetime experiences that have a lasting positive impact on you and the way you treat our world. Rather than regular holidays, where you are all ready planning the next one while sitting by the pool.
Partner with Chooose for our offsets- We know that carbon offsetting doesn’t actually solve the problem, we don’t use it as an excuse to fly, but it does help when it funds the most impactful CO2-reducing projects in the world.
We support the Green Flying Duty - We believe there is a way forward for truly sustainable flight. We agree with and actively support this approach put forward by Responsible Travel. Here is how you can too.
CONSUMABLES
Make and use things that last -
Only the most sustainable supply chains- For example we rigorously tested 7 of what the what claimed to be the most sustainable t-shirts before we chose a winner for our adventure garments.
Plant based or locally sustainably sourced food only - Yes we love Bacon too, but is our personal appetite for meat it really worth the devastating impact the commercial meat industry has on our planet? We think not. Also, we only use the best possible chefs to cook up delights that make you say “Kevin who?”
Green energy supplier - Our office and staff homes are supplied by Ecotricity. We also encourage our clients to join the green energy revolution [Link to discount]
Our adventure research plants trees - It takes weeks of research and countless searches to put together an adventure, we might as well plant trees as we do it… https://www.ecosia.org/
Wider impact
We support key conservation projects in every place we adventure - We want to see the most beautiful places on the plant. But more importantly, keep them that way. So each trip will support a carefully chosen local project that is doing great work to ensure that. For example… Our Paradise Unlost project will support Save Philippine Seas
Positivity packs - Every single person who comes on a trip with us gets supplied with a positivity pack. This gives them a one stop shop to instantly transform their own impact on the planet and spreads our positive impact further. Hang on, we should give one to as many people as possible!
