I'm a writer, speaker and sustainable tourism consultant. I am co-founder of Tourism Declares a Climate Emergency, an initiative that supports tourism destinations, businesses and individuals in declaring a climate emergency and working together to reduce their carbon emissions in line with IPCC advice.
I believe tourism can be truly life-changing, restoring us, those we meet, and the nature we need. I work to make this happen, mostly focussing on developing narratives and responses that engage effectively with climate change and resilience.
I am the author of Transforming Travel - realising the potential of sustainable tourism (2018), and co-founder and editor of Travindy.com, the travel industry sustainable tourism website news site. I consult widely on sustainable tourism strategy and communication, with recent clients including Bruges Ommeland, GSTC, English National Parks, Tripadvisor, the Travel Foundation, and the European Travel Commission.
