Reducing Carbon Footprint at Green Jungle Resort
The tourism industry has a significant role to play in combating climate change. Since the founding of the Temple Tiger Green Jungle Resort in Chitwan National Park (West sector, Buffer Zone), an integral part of our vision has always been to have a positive impact on the society and environment in which we operate. We firmly believe that small steps can make a big difference.
To make one’s travel dreams come true and facilitate journeys to different parts of our amazing planet, it is important to us that we and our guests make a positive contribution to the people and places visited along the way. We are always striving to enhance your stay at our resort in Chitwan, while also being mindful of our environmental impact. In line with our commitment to sustainability, we have introduced our new initiative aimed at reducing carbon footprints that can help you contribute to the preservation of our planet while still enjoying a memorable journey.
As a responsible green resort, we want to contribute positively to the communities we engage with and the world at large. As a step towards achieving greater sustainability, we aim to minimize CO2 emissions from any trip you take with us while simultaneously investing in carbon mitigation measures.
With that in mind, we have curated a list of eco-conscious practices and sustainable tips.
Choose Eco-Friendly Accommodations: Opt for accommodations that have a clear commitment to sustainability, such as hotels with green certifications or eco-lodges that promote responsible tourism.
Support Local Communities: Engage in local activities and support local businesses to foster sustainable development in the regions you visit. This helps empower local communities and minimizes the carbon impact of your spending.
Use Public Transportation and Shared Transfers: Utilize public transportation whenever possible or join group transfers to reduce the overall carbon emissions generated during travel between destinations.
Conserve Energy and Water: Be mindful of your energy and water consumption in your accommodation. Simple actions like turning off lights and air conditioning when not in use can make a difference.
Pack Light: Packing light not only makes your trip more convenient but also reduces the weight of transportation, leading to lower fuel consumption and emissions.
Offset Your Carbon Emissions: Consider participating in our carbon offset program, where we invest in verified projects that help counterbalance the carbon emissions from your travel.
Avoid Single-Use Plastics: Minimize the use of single-use plastics by carrying a reusable water bottle and shopping bag, as well as refusing plastic straws and utensils.
Explore on Foot or Bicycle: Embrace the beauty of nature by exploring your destination on foot or renting bicycles. This not only reduces emissions but also allows you to experience the local culture more intimately.
Respect Wildlife and Natural Habitats: Always adhere to responsible wildlife viewing guidelines and avoid disturbing natural habitats during your excursions.
We believe that by collectively embracing these measures, we can significantly reduce our resort's carbon footprint and become an example of responsible tourism in the region. Let us work together to protect the beautiful jungle we call home and ensure that our Resort in Chitwan stands as a testament to sustainable hospitality.
