Our
mission is to promote sustainable development
and eco-friendly travel by providing programs
that help travelers and travel-related companies
protect the environmental, socio-cultural
and economic needs of the places they visit,
and the planet at large.
While many parts of the world have taken
a leadership role in creating and promoting
sustainable travel and tourism initiatives,
such as tourism certification and carbon-offset
programs, similar programs are virtually
non-existent in North America and many developing
countries. We aim to change that.
