156: Travel to Build Change with Bret Love – Part 1
“A lot of people… hear the word “eco-tourism” and they think it’s just about protecting the environment. But to me, “eco” stands for ecology but it also stands for economy. And eco-tourism is not responsible unless the local communities benefit from the preservation of the eco-system. If they don’t benefit economically from it, then it has no hope.” - Bret Love
In this episode, get to know the founder and mind behind Green Global Travel, and Green Travel Media — two services helping brands and destinations raise awareness of their green initiatives and to build up a vibrant community of writers and organizations working together in tandem to give Ecotourism a broader, more prominent international platform.
Bret Love is a music journalist and travel writer — who along with his wife launched Green Global Travel to pursue a passion around eco-tourism.
