I was interviewed by Travelage West, as part of their work in writing “What COVID-19 Can Teach the Travel Industry About Sustainability and Climate Change.” I was quoted under the “All Parties Will Be Held Accountable” section. It was fun to share some of the ways I help my clients- and talk about Lindblad Expeditions’s self-disinfecting fleet. ……. “The cruise industry has also taken a huge hit during COVID-19. While in recovery mode, however, cruise lines can seek solutions that encourage confidence in health and safety, as well as sustainability. 

Sheila Gallant-Halloran, owner of Lush Life Travel in Ottawa, Canada, applauds Lindblad Expeditions in particular. In February, the carbon-neutral expedition cruise line became the first self-disinfecting fleet in the industry. It uses a photocatalytic process that breaks down unwanted microbes including bacteria and viruses; the implementation also significantly eliminates use of water and cleaning products in plastic containers.”
