“This year’s World Environment Day theme, “Ending Plastic Pollution,” deeply resonates with our long-standing values at Intrepid Travel. As a certified B Corporation, we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint through practical, on-the-ground actions.
In India, we’ve been saying no to plastic for over 18 years by providing every arriving customer with a reusable tote bag, encouraging them to avoid single-use plastic during their journey. More recently, we launched a pilot initiative with 10 hotel partners, distributing glass water bottles to replace plastic bottles for our groups—an important step toward eliminating plastic waste in our supply chain.
Across our global operations, we actively discourage the use of plastic items such as bottles and bags, and we educate our travelers on the environmental impact of plastic pollution. In regions where plastic use remains prevalent, like India, we place special emphasis on awareness and behavior change—working closely with our teams, suppliers, and even travelers to inspire more responsible choices.
At Intrepid, we believe that small, consistent actions lead to big change. We’re proud to be part of the solution and remain committed to playing our role in ending plastic pollution.”
