We shouldn\u2019t be aspiring for things to go back to normal, but rather redefine what normal means and use this period of travel stagnation to focus on rebuilding our businesses more ethically and sustainably, so that our earth is preserved for future generations to explore,\u201d said James Thornton, CEO of Intrepid Travel.<\/p>\n<p>As the world\u2019s largest adventure travel company and a pioneer in sustainable travel for over 30 years, Intrepid Travel has focused on using this time to think about how it can rebuild better itself, while also using the tools and insights the company has built over the years to encourage others in the travel industry to emerge from this crisis more responsible.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Quick Start Guide<\/em> provides a low barrier way for other travel companies to get started on their carbon journey by offering straightforward steps \u2013 from understanding how climate change is impacting your business to developing a carbon management strategy \u2013 and using real world examples from Intrepid to show how others can implement similar strategies within their own organization.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This is an excerpt of an article originally published on <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adventuretravelnews.com\/intrepid-travel-releases-guide-to-help-travel-businesses-decarbonize-during-the-pandemic\">AdventureTravelNews<\/a>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tour operator Intrepid Travel has created a 10-step guide for travel companies looking to decarbonise their businesses.
