We are committed to developing new partnerships for the continued promotion of ecotourism and related areas. Below are a list of organisations who we are currently working with.
Sustainable Travel International \ Greem Dilemma | Future Forests \ Tourism Insight \ Adventure Business Consultants
Sustainable Travel International (STI) is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization
dedicated to promoting responsible tourism, supporting sustainable development
and helping travelers and travel companies protect the environments and cultures
they visit. STI provides a myriad of programs including educational training
courses, travelers' philanthropy, carbon offsets, and eco-certification for
responsible travel companies.
Every day 1000's of us are faced with more and more environmental dilemmas.
Should you replace normal light bulbs with low energy bulbs immediately, or wait till the normal ones fail? Should I travel by bus or train? Should I cook with the microwave, grill or oven? If the microwave is best, where do I draw the line with packaging?
In response to these questions, Green Dilemma has created a web forum to try to help us make the greenest choice when faced with a environmental conundrum. We don't have the answers and we don't expect many (if any) of the questions to have black or white answers.
We hope to put forward your questions and get responses from many people with varying viewpoints. Visit www.greendilemma.com
Since 1997 Future Forests has been working with companies and individuals
helping them to understand all about global warming and what positive steps
we can all take to make a difference. How it works is that with the help of
their carbon science partners, the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Management,
they can work out how much carbon dioxide is created by a certain activity,
say taking a flight, and ways in which this can be balanced out either through
forestry or a low carbon technology projects such as switching to energy efficient
light bulbs in the Caribbean making you and that flight CarbonNeutral®.
