Sustainable travel is not just an action, it's a state of mind
Becoming a more thoughtful traveller, mindful of our impact on destinations we visit, begins at home. After all, for many of us, our home is also a destination. Living sustainably and being aware of issues at home and abroad, is key to our transformation.
Destination management
Providers of destination facilities are the gateways to local experiences.
Acceptance, responsibility and ownership
While it’s easy to say we played our part, our responsibilities go further. Sustainability is a life issue, not a once or twice a year affair. We have to own the problem and live the solution.
Political & commercial conflicts of interest
When it comes to change, the biggest obstacles are often the impact on businesses and profits, which translates to lobby groups and government resistance. This has to change.
Broader awareness and education
The travelling public is catching on to the issue of sustainable travel with nearly half of travellers reported as making sustainability a key issue when choosing a holiday or travel provider, but this must continue unabated.
Climate change and travel
Undoubtedly the most obvious issue we all face. Understanding the impact travel has specifically and how to mitigate its affects is a step in the right direction.
