PLANTING TREES IN AFGHANISTAN

As a travel company we don’t believe its enough to simply off-set the carbon emissions generated by our travellers flights. We have calculated a formula for the most effective way to ensure long term carbon capture that we are implementing in Bamiyan, Afghanistan.

There is a lot of hype about tree planting, and some of it is not so good. We don’t believe it's enough to simply plant a tree - or two - per flight, without a tangible impact. So we've researched varieties of local sapling, soil quality and tree mortality rate and established a formula to ensure long-term carbon capture.
