Nowadays, customers like you consider the values of companies before they make a purchase. Recent data from Sprout Social state that around 70% of consumers think that brands should take a stand on social and political issues.
This is why B Corp Month is important. B Corp Month, celebrated every March, recognizes companies that use their business as a force for good. B Corps have a unique set of attributes that set them apart from other companies: they focus on creating positive social and environmental change, rather than simply pursuing profits.
If you are one of these consumers that like traveling, one way to travel sustainably is to choose a B Corp travel company. But aside from that, how can you travel in a way that recognizes B Corp Month? Read this article to find out.
WHAT ARE B CORPORATIONS?
B Corps are for-profit companies that meet rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. B Corps are leaders of a global movement of people using business as a force for good. There are over 6,000 B Corps in 150 industries and 80 countries around the world.
To become a B Corp, a company must complete a detailed impact assessment by B Lab, a nonprofit network that wants to transform the global economy to benefit all people, communities, and the planet.
Baboo Travel has been a B Corp since December 2022. Baboo Travel has a commitment to providing exceptional service while also making travel ethical, sustainable, and a force for good.
How to Plan Your Travel During B Corp Month
Are a frequent traveler that want to be more conscious about the impact of your trips to the environment? This B Corp Month is the perfect time to learn about how to be a better traveler. Here are some tips:
1. Stay in eco-friendly accommodations
When it comes to finding eco-friendly accommodations, there are a number of things to keep in mind. First and foremost, you’ll want to look for accommodations that are certified by an organization like LEED or Green Globe. These certification programs ensure that the accommodation meets certain standards for energy efficiency and sustainability.
2. Do your research
Before you book a tour or join a group, do your research to make sure they are committed to sustainable tourism practices. Look for reviews from previous travelers and ask questions about their environmental policies.
3. Pack light
Packing light not only makes it easier to get around, but it also reduces your carbon footprint. The less luggage you have, the less fuel is required to transport it. So, pack smart and only bring what you need.
4. Take public transportation
Public transportation is one of the most sustainable ways to travel. It reduces your carbon footprint, saves you money, and is often more convenient than driving. Try to take the bus or the trains in the area that you want to visit, instead of renting a car.
