Transforming Travel: How Sustainable Tours Benefit the Planet
Principles for Sustainable Tour
We often wonder about and question whether “traveling” can contribute to the enrichment of the environment and its ecosystems. If we define traveling as an act of departing from one place and heading to another, a sustainable tour may be a great opportunity for us to travel throughout Indonesia.
As we explore and discover new beauties of life by taking tours, experiencing the culture, and immersing ourselves in abundant natural resources, we will also aim to reduce our negative impacts and produce positive impacts. To ensure sustainability for the environment, the tourist activities were designed with the principles of Sustainable Tourism in mind.
Caventer Indonesia, in collaboration with Bakti BCA, strongly supports the concept of Sustainable Tourism. As part of our commitment, we ensure that carbon offset is integrated into every program we run, contributing to reducing the carbon footprint of tourism and promoting a more sustainable future for all.
How Can We Measure Sustainable Tour?
To measure the results of Sustainable Tour, we measure the amount of greenhouse gases generated from tourist activities, traveling, energy use, and waste management. Quantitative data is collected and calculated using the following formula:
Carbon footprint and mangrove absorption value have been adjusted with reference from IPCC and Indonesian Government Regulations.
Carbon Offset
A carbon offset is a way to compensate by funding an equivalent carbon dioxide saving elsewhere, which aims to completely eliminate tourism-related greenhouse gases emission. This can ensure that tourism can contribute to reducing its own environmental impact while also building towards sustainability.
By this carbon offsetting, Carbon Neutrality can be achieved and it’s a way to show social responsibility by helping to cut tourism-related greenhouse gas emissions, thus creating a unique selling point and adding value to tourism.
