EP-227 BEYOND CARBON OFFSETS: How to Truly Travel Responsibly with Rebecca Thompson


Listen Later

We all know travel can broaden our horizons — but what happens when our adventures harm the very places we love? In this episode of the 10Adventures Podcast, we sit down with Rebecca Thompson, an award-winning sustainability leader and founder of Sustainable Travel Technologies, to discuss how we can move beyond “less harm” and into travel that actively creates a positive impact.

Rebecca has worked across the globe helping tourism companies and travelers rethink their choices. She shares insights from destinations grappling with overtourism, explains the hidden social and economic costs of our travel habits, and offers easy, practical tips anyone can use to make their next trip more sustainable — without losing the joy of discovery.

Rebecca’s stories will challenge the way you think about your role as a traveler. Whether you’re a frequent flyer or a weekend road-tripper, this conversation will inspire you to travel better.
