The global tour operator\u2019s ambitious 2035 emissions reduction targets, in line with a 1.5\u00b0C future, have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The initiative is a collaboration between four organizations, including the United Nations Global Compact, who together promote best practices around corporate climate action and independently assess and approve companies\u2019 targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intrepid will be taking a series of actions to further transform its business for a low-carbon future. <a>It will seek to reduce emissions across its operations and trips, replacing transport options on many of the company\u2019s itineraries to lower carbon alternatives such as high speed rail.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond its existing tours, Intrepid will be expanding its newly launched range of closer to home trips to over 100 itineraries in 2021, to provide options with shorter or no flights required. Internally, Intrepid will also be reducing international business travel, procuring renewable electricity and transitioning to 100% renewable energy in its global offices by 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 1.5\u00b0C degree target is in line with the historic <a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/process-and-meetings\/the-paris-agreement\/the-paris-agreement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2015 Paris Agreement<\/a>, in which world leaders outlined a clear global response to the threat of climate change. To reach its 2035 target, Intrepid Travel has committed to reduce absolute scope 1 (direct emissions) and scope 2 (emissions from heat and electricity) greenhouse gas emissions 71% by 2035 from a 2018 base year. Intrepid Travel also committed to reduce scope 3 (value chain emissions) greenhouse gas emissions from its offices by 34% per full-time employee and from its trips by 56% per passenger day over the same period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The approved science-based targets mark the most significant step Intrepid has taken in the fight against climate change since becoming a carbon neutral business in 2010. Over the past 10 years, Intrepid has offset more than 350,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions worldwide. In January 2020, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/why-intrepid-are-declaring-a-climate-emergency\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Intrepid declared a climate emergency<\/a> with Tourism Declares, a global collective of tourism businesses, organisations and individuals who have pledged urgent action on climate change. As part of the declaration, Intrepid outlined its seven-point climate commitment plan, which included the commitment to setting science-based targets aligned with a 1.5\u00b0C future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before Covid-19, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbonbrief.org\/tourism-responsible-for-8-of-global-greenhouse-gas-emissions-study-finds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tourism industry accounted for 8% of the world\u2019s carbon emissions<\/a>. While Intrepid is now recognised as the first and only tour operator with science-based targets, the company knows that the climate crisis cannot be handled in isolation. There are currently&nbsp;only&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sciencebasedtargets.org\/companies-taking-action\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">14 hospitality and tourism companies<\/a>&nbsp;in the world with approved targets, including&nbsp;Hilton and InterContinental Hotels&nbsp;Group, with&nbsp;an additional 14 companies within the sector of hospitality who are&nbsp;committed to setting&nbsp;science-based targets, including&nbsp;Legacy Vacation Resorts and MGM Resorts International.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIntrepid\u2019s verified science-based targets mark the most significant step we\u2019ve taken on our climate journey in the past 15 years,\u201d says James Thornton, CEO of Intrepid Travel. \u201cSetting science-based targets is widely considered the most effective way for companies to take significant climate action, and we\u2019re proud to be building our business towards a 1.5\u00b0C future. Our hope is that we can use this as a rallying cry to the entire industry that climate action needs to be a critical priority in travel\u2019s post-COVID recovery. We simply can\u2019t rebuild at the expense of the planet,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The results and progress of Intrepid\u2019s science-based targets will be&nbsp;led by&nbsp;Intrepid\u2019s&nbsp;Environmental Impact Specialist, Dr. Susanne Etti, and&nbsp;reported annually through the company\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidgroup.travel\/sites\/default\/files\/2020-04\/Intrepid_2019_Integrated_Annual_Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Integrated Report.<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information, visit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sciencebasedtargets.org\/companies-taking-action\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Science Based Targets<\/a>&nbsp;and Intrepid\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/carbon-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">carbon&nbsp;<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/carbon-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">management<\/a>&nbsp;page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intrepid is also encouraging other travel companies wanting to learn more about setting science-based targets to reach&nbsp;out directly to Dr. Etti and the responsible business team at &nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:responsible.business@intrepidtravel.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">responsible.business@intrepidtravel.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-ENDS-<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>About the SBTi<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\r\n<p>The Science Based Target initiative (SBTi) is a collaboration between the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the United Nations Global Compact (UN Global Compact), World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and one of the We Mean Business Coalition commitments.
