Taking care of the planet is a growing priority with travelers wanting to ensure there’s a healthy world to even explore. Global travel adventure company Explore Worldwide (a Hotelplan travel group brand) recently formed a climate timely partnership with Klimate and Rewilding Britain, affirming its dedication to both rewilding efforts and carbon removal within the travel industry.

Each of these companies is a founding signatory of the Glasgow Declaration, and all pledged to not stop at carbon offsetting, but go further by committing to removing carbon from the atmosphere through efforts such as Direct Air Capture projects and robust tree-planting initiatives.

“We’re delighted to align ourselves with these innovative organizations, both leaders in their field,” said Joe Ponte, CEO, Hotelplan UK. “Protecting the planet that we and our customers so love exploring is critical, as is taking a forward-thinking approach in our carbon mitigation efforts. Working with Klimate and Rewilding Britain is a significant step towards this.”

Further Explore Worldwide/Hotelplan UK efforts include financial support and resources to help Rewilding Britain, all used to assist communities with rewilding programs both on land and in the sea.

“Rewilding Britain depends entirely on voluntary donations to do our work, so Explore’s support has been a lifeline,” said Rebecca Wrigley, CEO, Rewilding Britain. “We’ve already achieved some incredible things, but one stand out is the growth of our Rewilding Network to almost 1,000 members, which means new rewilding initiatives of all shapes and sizes across Britain. We’re excited to see what the coming year will bring now with Hotelplan UK’s support.”
