More Sailing climate compensates your sailing trip
From 2019, More Sailing climate compensates all sailing trips we arrange to 110%. This means that you who travel with More Sailing contribute more positively with climate-positive measures than the negative co2 impact that your sailing trip has. More Sailing also compensates all internal travel for our staff and other impact the company has to be at least climate neutral.
More Sailing works sustainably according to the people, planet and profit principle. We at More Sailing are sure that our sailing trips contribute positively through cultural exchange for both the people who travel with us, but also for the people we visit in our destinations. We know that tourism is an important source of income for many remote communities and that our travelers, through their trips, contribute economically to better conditions for the people who live where we sail. More Sailing prioritizes small-scale suppliers and locally grown raw materials.
CO2 emissions and global warming are a threat to all living things on our planet. Sailing is environmentally friendly but air travel to the sailboat is not. Air travel accounts for 95% of the negative climate impact of buying a sailing trip. By More Sailing investing in various climate projects, we compensate the CO2 emissions caused by the sailing trip with 110%.
We do not believe that we are buying a clean conscience through climate compensation, but we are doing something concrete to slow down global warming. With More Sailing, climate compensation of CO2 is included in all sailing trips, it is not possible to opt out. If you have tips on how we can work more sustainably for the environment, you are welcome to contact us.
Example:
Sailing trip to Croatia, Greece and Italy 7 days, emissions about 1.5 tons of co2, about 375:-.
Sailing trip to the Caribbean 10 days, emissions about 5 tons co2, about 1250:-.
