2. Share our ProgressPart of Project Impact and this Declarations, we will be completely honest and transparent of our progress towards our pledges. As part of the 12-month plan, once we have all the data, we will release it to the public. 3. Cut global carbon emissionsTourism alone is contributing to the global carbon dioxide emissions, ranging from 8-10% of the world’s emissions, this only is expected to rise. We accept current IPCC advice stating the need to cut global carbon emissions to 55% below 2017 levels by 2030 in order to keep the planet within 1.5 degrees of warming We’ll ensure our plan will measure and report the carbon emissions per trip per customer and offer solutions in lowering this. 4. Work with our partnersPart of Impact’s pledges is to create partnerships and campaigns with companies who are also acting against climate change. We’ll also encourage our current suppliers and partners to make the same declaration; sharing best practice amongst peers; and actively participate in the Tourism Declares community.5. Advocate for change. We are fully aware that travel has a significant way to go to make a difference, but this is our only mission moving forward. We recognise the need for system change across the industry to accelerate a just transition towards carbon-free tourism.
