We believe the World Land Trust represents not just an opportunity but an essential part of what we wish to achieve. The real price of travel. And as rainforests provide 40% - 50% of all the oxygen on the planet, half the breaths we all take are reliant upon them. The WLT represents an opportunity to take care of ourselves. And, have fun in the process.

We know that harmful carbon is emitted in the form of the burning of fossil fuels, merely by us being alive. However, we should not be made miserable by this fact. We can do something about it - even whilst we travel. And as we travel we can discover what is so beautiful about this planet. Appreciate it, and want to protect it. The WLT can buy and protect threatened primary rainforest or in the worst case scenario re-plant a rainforest. Basically we want to save or plant more trees than we burn on our travels.

In order to achieve this we have put this as part of the DNA of our business. Not a bolt on. There is no opting out of these costs with us. They are part of the price. It is fundamental to the way our business is run. This is not PR or spin. It is the real cost of enjoying our world and keeping it that way for future generations.
