The domestic outdoors specialist saw 2021/22 emissions reduce to 77kg of CO2 per guest compared to 96kg the previous year. However there was a sharp increase in the company’s overall carbon footprint from 8,799 kg during Covid in 2020/21 to nearly 31,000kg.
The operator said: “This year is tough to improve on but we’re committed to achieving a 6% reduction year on year, with a target of 73kg per guest next year.”
The biggest contributor to emissions was accommodation and Adventure Tours has changed a hotel on one of its itineraries for another with a lower carbon footprint. It is also developing more rail tours.
