Environmental Policy

As a small photography business, it’s easy to imagine that our activities have no impact on the environment, but of course that’s not true.

We may be small fry but in our view, this doesn’t preclude us from the obligation to try, wherever possible, to deliver a first-class service which also takes account of social and environmental responsibility. We’re by no means perfect, but we are trying hard!  Our current policies include:

  • Using locally sourced and/or organic food and consumables on our photo-tours.
  • Recycling everything that is recyclable.
  • Choosing family-run accommodation where we can for our photo tours.
  • Minimising air travel.
  • Offsetting carbon emissions by contributing to forest restoration projects.
  • Increasingly adopting sustainable practices throughout our business.

Trees for Life

 

Northshots is a long-standing supporter of Trees for Life. To help offset our vehicle and air travel emmissions, Northshots has pledged to plant a minimum of 700 trees each year through Trees for Life.

In addition, we have set up a Corporate Grove to enable our tour guests to make additional donations directly to Trees for Life. Click here to make a donation.
