Demystifying Carbon Offsets Webinar

It can be difficult to sift through all the information about carbon offsetting to figure out how it fits into your journey as a sustainable traveler. During this webinar, our very own Paloma Zapata and Kaitlyn Brajcich demystify carbon offsetting and discuss the role it plays in being a climate conscious traveler. Watch this recording to learn more about how carbon offsetting works and what to think about when offsetting your carbon footprint.

This event was streamed live on April 8, 2021.

Offset Your Carbon Footprint

We support individuals and businesses in calculating and offsetting their carbon footprint.

Your Destination is a Story

  • Slide01
  • Slide02
    People tell stories; great stories become myths because they allow audiences to aspire to a basic value.
  • Slide03
    We moved from an oral tradition of storytelling to a broadcast era where ideas spread in one direction.
  • Slide04
    We’re now in a digital era where everyone spreads ideas and tells stories; the best survive over time.
  • Slide05
  • Slide06
  • Slide07
  • Slide08
    Great marketing stories don’t sell products. Marlboro ads didn’t sell cigarettes; they sold manliness at a time when filtered cigarettes were for women.
  • Slide09
    In the best stories, the hero goes on a journey, meets a mentor who gives him a talisman and sends him off on an adventure to seek a truth.
  • Slide10
    In successful marketing, stories empower their audiences.
  • Slide11
    In traditional broadcast marketing, the focus is on the brand—its accomplishments.
  • Slide12
    But engaging stories make the audience the hero by giving them something to aspire to.
  • Slide13
  • Slide14
    You can share all the great sustainability stuff that you’re doing. But that’s not a story that’s going to stick with your audience.
  • Slide15
  • Slide16
  • Slide17
    A very successful Dove soap campaign didn’t focus on the product’s cleaning power; it engaged women around their feelings about self-image and self-worth.
  • Slide18
    Values are the essence of what your brand stands for.
  • Slide19
    The nonprofit Charity Water stands for water as the basis of life.
  • Slide20
    This Nike campaign was not about running shoes but inner strength.
  • Slide21
    Patagonia takes the audience on the sustainability journey; they don’t claim that they’re doing everything perfectly. Sustainability is a journey.
  • Slide22
    Airbnb’s campaign is about the essential goodness of people.
  • Slide23
    What is a value that you can share about your brand?

10 MILLION BETTER Presentation

  • Slide01
    10 MILLION BETTER: This is our moment for a movement.
  • Slide02
    Despite its power and reach, travel and tourism isn’t as good as it could be.  Not everyone is benefitting as much as they could.  In many places tourism leads to exclusion, inequality and cultural homogenization.
  • Slide03
    It doesn’t have to be this way. We owe something to the places and people we visit.
  • Slide04
    10 MILLION BETTER is designed take the wonder, amazement and sheer joy of travel and use it to improve lives, protect places and provide visitors with meaningful experiences.  It's designed to improve the lives of 10 MILLION people in tourism-dependent areas.
  • Slide05
    Hotels are recycling, airlines are offsetting carbon and restaurants are serving locally-grown food. But travel and tourism has not yet collectively rallied around  the cause—not like food, fashion, forestry and other sectors where sustainability has become the business norm.
  • Slide06
    One third of the population is interested in global issues like poverty and climate change. And they shop, share and travel with a conscience. Businesses that  demonstrate their commitment to a better world through travel are staying ahead of the curve. They're reducing operating costs, increasing efficiencies and attracting visitors.
  • Slide07
  • Slide08
    We are determined to improve the lives of 10 million people over the next ten years so that local communities and economies benefit from visitor spending and are empowered to determine their own path for growth. For businesses, 10 MILLION BETTER is an opportunity to demonstrate a return on investment in sustainability, gain recognition as a purpose-driven company and join a global initiative that is improving lives and protecting places through travel and tourism. For travelers, it's a chance to protect the people and places they care about and to spread that word that travel can be a path towards.
