Can Travel Ever Be Sustainable
In this Podcast with Charlie Cotton we discuss if travel can ever be sustainable.
\nIn this time of Covid19 travel has been severely curtailed and this has profoundly affected the travel industry. Travel can congregate people together in such a way that pandemics can spread. They can also be highly intensive in their carbon footprint.
\nSo in a time of climate change when we are trying to reach net zero in greenhouse gas emissions can we justify mass tourism and is it possible that such travel can be sustainable.
\nIn this Podcast we will explore these questions with Charlie Cotton who runs a sustainable travel company. Charlie believes that travel can be organised in such a way that reduces the carbon footprint and thus lessens the environmental impact. Travel organise this way is not costly and can give a positive return on investment.
\nOne of the ways this is done is by using common sense and technology to calculate just how streamlined supply chains are and to do so through stakeholder engagement and with clear transparency.
\nHow successful is this and how authentic sustainable travel can be is something we will discuss in this Podcast
