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.
