We declare a climate emergency

 

More Life Adventures is here to bring the best coaching to those that value it and to restore our connections to one another and the planet.

Over the past 10 months, we’ve had some time to consider our impact on the current climate crisis and how we can make a contribution through our fitness retreats.

As the travel restrictions are gradually lifted around the world, we could not think of a better time to make this declaration.

We’ve signed up to Tourism Declares, an initiative that supports travel businesses in

  • Declaring a climate emergency and

  • Taking purposeful action to reduce their carbon emissions as per the advice from The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to cut global carbon emissions to 55% below 2017 levels by 2030. 

We have committed to the following five actions:

1. Develop a ‘Climate Emergency Plan’ within the next 12 months, which sets out our intentions to reduce carbon emissions over the next decade.

2. Share an initial public declaration of our ‘Climate Emergency Plan’, and update on progress each year.

3. 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 ‘Climate Emergency Plan’ represents actions designed to achieve this as a minimum, through delivering transparent, measurable and increasing reductions in the total carbon emissions per customer arising from our operations and the travel services sold by us. 

4. Encourage our 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 recognise the need for system change across the industry to accelerate a just transition towards carbon-free tourism.
