Hi Harmonie, you are absolutely right. Air travel is usually a significant part of a humanitarian organisation's footprint.
Here is a list of questions to ask before a trip :
- Can the trip be avoided (video conferencing)?
- Can the trip be made by any means other than by plane?
(possibility of prohibiting air travel for travel by air for journeys of less than 1000 km)
- Can flight routes be optimised? (possibility to choose non-stop or as few as possible and avoid low cost routing).
Developing a responsible travel policy is essential to promote sustainable and ethical practices in the travel industry. Such as https://thebestdesertsafari.com/hatta-tour/ can help minimize the negative impacts of tourism on the environment, local communities, and cultural heritage while maximizing the benefits.
Embrace responsible travel with Ideal Umrah Packages! Our guidelines prioritize ethical practices, conservation, and cultural respect. We advocate minimizing environmental impact, supporting local communities, and fostering cultural exchange. Join us in creating meaningful and sustainable travel experiences.
