Tourism is one of Ecuador's three main industries, and the employer of thousands of people. With government backing, the industry will continue to experience major annual growth; a global trend that shows no sign of abating.
This is excellent news for the nation but not for the environment, as inevitably it will generate more travel pollution to, from and within the country.
CanopyCo is helping offset that pollution through managing extensive reforestation and community development programs.
If you decide to travel, make your trip carbon neutral with CanopyCo.
Your tree purchases will allow CanopyCo to manage and develop the following activities:
The reforestation of native tree species to sequester carbon dioxide emissions.
Community development projects focussing on alternative energy and environmental education.
