Signature Luxury Travel & Style’s ‘A Force for Good’ issue is out now

As the world faces an undeniable climate emergency, Signature Luxury Travel & Style’s latest ‘A Force for Good’ issue illuminates a promising path, celebrating sustainability, conservation and environmental awareness in travel. As travellers, we have a part to play, and any action, big or small, can make a positive contribution to our remarkable planet.

In this issue, Signature Luxury Travel & Style educates and inspires, showcasing providers that actively inject funds into protecting wildlife, empowering local communities and embracing a circular economy.

“Climate change has arrived ahead of schedule. It is here right now, and it demands our immediate action. Addressing climate change requires a collective effort. In the travel industry, it is up to us as individuals, as well as hoteliers and tour operators, to take action, however we can - now,” says Editor-in-Chief, Cathy Wagstaff.

Among nature’s most endangered destinations and wildlife, there are forces for good at play that allow us to travel with the environment and sustainability at top of mind. Learn about the legendary Elephant Whisperer and the people contributing to Thula Thula Private Game Reserve’s commitment to conservation. From Ecuador to Indonesia, discover eight low-impact ecolodges where sustainability meets luxury. Steer away from over-tourism and tread lightly, while contributing to wildlife conservation and giving back to local communities with our round-up of 24 thoughtful travel experiences, detailing where your travels give back to the communities and the environment.

Sustainable travel is of course not limited to dry land - opt for conscious cruise companies making a splash, like Hurtigruten, whose foundation focuses on preserving endangered wildlife, local communities and marine litter. Other cruise operators, like Ponant, Silversea, Aurora Expeditions, Silversea, Quark Expeditions, MSC Cruises and Lindblad Expeditions also feature in the issue for their sustainable initiatives and use of clean power.  

There are countless ways to enjoy luxury travel while sustaining the destinations you visit and the wildlife you encounter. In the pages of our ‘A Force for Good’ issue, we take you to those who are doing their best and playing positive parts in protecting our planet.
