Leave it to Spirit of the West Adventures to bake environmental action into every aspect of their business 🛶 As a kayaking guide company, Spirit of the West Adventures interacts with British Columbia's marine environment every single day. To ensure their guides and guests understand marine challenges and solutions, their team has their guides go through a course by Marine Education and Research Society, an environmental partner. While out in the field, Spirit of the West Adventure guides also use an app developed by North Island Marine Mammal Stewardship Association, another environmental partner, to log cetacean and marine mammal sightings. By recording data, they’re helping to minimize vessel strikes and disturbances and allow researchers to observe foraging trends. Want to support more partnership stories like these? Give to 1% for the Planet today: https://hubs.ly/Q02_PLyl0 Photo by Spirit of the West Adventures #onepercentfortheplanet #membership #environmentalgiving #certification #britishcolumbia #canada #kayaking #marineconservation
