Our world and the environment which harbours life as we know it is precious and irreplaceable. We champion living a sustainable life that respects and improves our environment. Please read in detail our sustainable practices below.
Sustainability
Sustainability is one of the core values of our business and guides our actions (big or small) everyday.
We feel immensely privileged to be able to work in such an incredible natural environment and we recognise that one of our key roles is to leave the environment within which we operate in an improved state. With this in mind, we have detailed our sustainable business practices below.
Further to this information, please do ask any of our team about our sustainable ways of operating. We would be only to happy to chat about this!
Emissions Reduction Action Plan
As a business we set an annual Emissions Reduction Action Plan. We use ERC Australia's platform to assist us create this in a user-friendly way. This document sets out our actions and demonstrates how we are going to specifically reduce our carbon emissions.
From the biggest actions like operating completely off-grid, to the smallest, like choosing sustainable suppliers, we're focused every which way on sustainability.
You can read our full Emissions Reduction Action Plan here.
Operating Net Zero
As a business we are proud to be operating 'net zero'. How do we do this? We have our carbon emissions assessed by a carbon accountant periodically. Any Scope 1 and 2 emissions we can't remove ourselves through a change in business model, we then offset using an ethical Tasmanian offsetting company.
The Tasmanian carbon offsetting company we use is provided through the Tasmanian Land Conservancy - The New Leaf Carbon Project.
Our carbon accountants have calculated that we produce just under 11 tonnes of carbon annually. We therefore pay $67/tonne to The New Leaf Carbon Project. You can see our Certificate of Sponsorship here.
Accreditation
Last, but by no means least, we are also proud to be a Sustainable Tourism Accredited business through the Australian Tourism Industry Council.
