The travel and tourism sector has an impact on the environment. Carbon emissions, food waste, single-use plastic and water pollution all contribute to climate change. That being said, some businesses in the travel and hospitality sector are aiming to be an inspiring force for good. These businesses want to help protect the planet, do the greater good for climate change and promote sustainable travel. This is where Wild England and AliKats Mountain Holidays come in.
Wild England and AliKats are joining forces to help protect the planet, enrich communities and promote positive change regarding sustainability and the environment. Both of the family-run businesses are doing good things when it comes to sustainable travel. They have a vision to create high-quality luxury products that go beyond profit, which is a delight to see.
Let’s start with AliKats Mountain Holidays
AliKats is a luxury chalet company in the mountain resort of Morzine in the French Alps. They offer low-impact holidays in the French Alps. They aim to create a low-impact lifestyle and believe that every positive action, however big or small, can make a difference.
AliKats recently won the Global Good Award for their achievements in social and environmental sustainability. They’ve practiced plenty of sustainability methods, which include:
- Declaring a climate emergency
- Permaculture gardening
- A zero-food waste initiative
- Creating a Climate Action Plan
- Decarbonising transport
- Community action to protect mountain environments
- Using small local businesses
- Reducing single-plastic use, waste and chemicals
- Speaking about climate change on podcasts
AliKats is doing the most incredible, inspiring work for sustainable travel.
Tourism boards and hospitality sectors can take huge lessons from Al Judge, AliKats’ co-founder. A sustainability speaker, he says it is essential to talk about climate change and often does so at numerous podcasts and online webinars. Judge also speaks at live industry climate summits and educational workshops to educate about sustainable travel. It is inspiring what Al Judge has achieved with sustainable travel and AliKats.
As I said, one of AliKats’ sustainable methods is to reduce single-use plastic and waste. One challenge AliKats has faced is to supply their luxury chalets with premium, eco-friendly toiletries that do not come in disposable plastic containers. This is where Wild England comes in.
AliKats has partnered with Wild England to provide guests with luxurious bathroom products whilst tackling the single-use plastic issue.
Wild England cares deeply about eco-travel and sustainability and has created beautiful, eco-friendly toiletries in the tourism industry. Their toiletries come in these beautiful, toughened, ever-lasting refillable glass bottles. Wild England is eliminating single-use plastic and is all for cost-effective refills and recyclable packaging.
As well as being kind to the planet, their beautiful toiletries are kind to the skin. All Wild England products are paraben and SBS-free and all have individual, signature scents to nurture the skin.
I had the pleasure of trying out the Cleansing Gel and the Body Lotion gift set in the scent of Sweet Orange & Cardamom. Honestly guys, both the cleansing gel and body lotion smell divine and they both blend into my skin so effortlessly. I cannot wait to keep using Wild England and their sustainable products. If you’re looking for luxurious, sustainable products for your bathroom, I’d recommend trying Wild England. The glass bottles are so aesthetically pleasing and their packaging is just so minimalistically luxurious.
