Environment

To ensure that we protect and preserve our natural environment, we have created a Climate Action Plan to help reduce and mitigate the impacts of climate change. We measured the overall impact of tourism in the Vancouver Island Region for our carbon audit.

Communities

A great place to live is often a great place to visit, but a great place to visit is not always a great place to live. We have to ensure that we focus destination management and development through the lens of the 875,000 people that live in this region and for those who live in other communities where we conduct our advisory services.
