Meet Intrepid Travel… the purpose-driven adventure company leading a global movement toward more sustainable tourism, and the Seeing Green Solutionist of the Day for October 8

In this Spotlight episode, we turn to travel — one of life’s greatest joys and one of the planet’s biggest challenges. Tourism supports roughly one in ten jobs worldwide yet contributes close to 8 percent of global carbon emissions through flights, lodging and food. Intrepid’s founders, two friends from Australia, saw a different path back in 1989: travel that connects rather than consumes. Their single Land Rover journey across Africa grew into the world’s largest small-group adventure company, now operating more than a thousand itineraries across a hundred-plus countries.

Intrepid builds purpose directly into the itinerary — from women’s cooperatives in Morocco to reforestation in Peru — showing that exploration and impact can coexist. As a certified B Corp and carbon-neutral pioneer since 2010, the company continues to raise the bar with transparent carbon labelling, a 55 percent emissions-reduction goal and its Intrepid Foundation funding community and wildlife projects worldwide. Adventure, regenerated.
