With sustainable travel becoming an ever more ‘hot topic’ for those who love to see the world, it is highly surprising that carbon offset is still such a technical and highly complicated subject. Reducing your carbon footprint is something that most people know, at least something, about: your carbon footprint is ‘the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere as a result of the activities of a particular individual, organization, or community’ and it can be reduced by changes to your lifestyle to increase your impact on slowing climate change.

Since we are a completely tented camp, our water from showers and handwashing basins runs straight into the ground. This means that any soaps, shampoo or conditioners used by our guests goes in there too. Chemicals in these products seep into the ground and can affect local waterways, animals and plants. Instead, we encourage guests to use the soaps we provide for them - namely products from Cinnabar Green and Grounded Africa.
