The Good Traveler Program
The Good Traveler Program is a carbon-offsetting option for whenever you travel! Through The Good Traveler, you can calculate the impact of your trip and make an equivalent donation to carbon reduction programs or local nonprofits. The Good Traveler and Walking Mountains have partnered with Eagle County Regional Airport to support Walking Mountains Sustainability Programs as one of your options to offset the impact of your trip. This is true regardless of where you travel!
Walking Mountains Sustainability Programs is working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through waste reduction, building electrification and retrofitting, energy efficiency, sustainable business practices, and MORE!
Offset group travel and corporate events to engage employees and clients, demonstrate social responsibility, and be a leader in sustainability! Contact elizabethb@walkingmountains.org for more information.
