GreenClean TRAVEL &

Whether you drive, fly, or cruise to your vacation destinations, you can now do so knowing you’ve helped preserve the beautiful places we call our homes away from home for generations to come. Participating in a carbon offset program allows you to lessen the impact of harmful emissions released into the atmosphere anytime you travel.

For a nominal fee, you contribute to environmental conservation programs and research projects dedicated to reducing carbon emissions, making it a win for you and the planet!

OFFSETTING

in Action!

When two of our team members traveled from San Diego to Park City to produce content for this magazine, they used a carbon calculator to determine the environmental impact of their trip, then Grand Pacific Resorts purchased the carbon offset credits to minimize the impact to the environment.

The Bee’s Knees!(Save)

Did you know that bees are a vital part of our environment? Those striped little buzzers are responsible for plant pollination, which in turn provides all of us with food. Unfortunately, bee populations have been dwindling for years. While we may not miss getting stung by them, we still need them to fuel our food supply.

Grand Pacific Resorts has partnered with Bee Leaf USA, an organization committed to safely rescuing any bee colonies residing on our properties then safely relocating them to sanctuaries where experienced beekeepers help them thrive once again.

Now that’s a cause worth buzzing about!
