Climate love

Swedish travel company stays on the ground. Will only offer train journeys!

From the founders of the Swedish Travel company Globalrunner: "Globalrunners was the first to offer all trains instead of flights on our trips in 2016. A few years later, we canceled the trips to which there were no sustainable transports from Sweden, such as Cuba, Iceland, Nepal, Mongolia, Istanbul, India, and more. We placed the responsibility on the customer to choose, flight or train. We saw a trend where more and more people chose the train, but unfortunately it has not only stopped but turned around. On our wintertours 2022, only 2-3 people choose trains on our trips, the rest choose to fly. Emissions of greenhouse gases affect the climate with worsening floods, famine and extreme weather as a result. After the Jizerska tour in February 2022, we will no longer offer flights to any guest on any trip. We will instead shift to the train (and bus if the train does not go all the way forward as to Moena on the Marcialongare trip). Will all our customers accompany us on our journeys by train? Maybe not all at once. Hopefully, new customers sign up who also like to travel, discover new places and who realize that we must act NOW. We want to be proud of our company and do what we feel in our stomach, heart and brain is the only right thing." THIS IS TRUE LEADERSHIP. CLIMATE BEFORE SHORT-TERM PROFIT. Not the other way around. I would love to book a vacation with this travel company. The mindset we need! Help more do the same. Share this climate love and give Globalrunner some free marketing. They need it and they deserve it! Read more and book your next trip with: https://www.globalrunners.se/english-startpage-globalrunners-45668789
