Tarkine Trails Environmental Policy
The environmental policy of all
our eco tours fall out of our love and respect for the natural world
and that we look beyond what is simply "good for us" when making
decisions that impact the environment. That we give voice to environmental
injustice when we see it and work creatively toward win-win solutions
that protect the environment for the benefit of people today and
future generations. Specific outcomes of this environmental policy for our eco tours include:
- A policy of "Maximum Respect Bush walking " which embraces
and develops upon the philosophy of minimal impact walking.
This idea encourages us to recognise that we are a part of the
natural environment and as such damage to "it" is damage ultimately
to us.
- Offering organic food (where possible) with minimal and reusable
packaging.
- Operating the business on a carbon neutral basis, investing
in tree planting schemes to capture the carbon that is created
by our vehicle and air travel. More details click

- Use 100%, post consumer waste recycled paper for all our office
paper needs.
