Create a sustainable future: Join forces to unlock the power of tourism for good.
"I'm an optimist that we can create a better world, and I realized that tourism can be a very good multiplicator for that world."

Andreas Koch has 25 years of experience in the sustainable tourism industry. He is the co-founder of the companies blueContec and Tourythm, which works to make travel a force for good.

Andreas Koch, a biologist and environmental management policy student, saw the potential for tourism to spread values of sustainability. For thirteen years he worked at TUI, a big European travel company, and co-founded a sustainable tourism NGO.
He works with destinations, hotels and corporations to create a sustainability “rhythm” by connecting guests, employees, suppliers and local farmers. Through his long track-record in this space and by experiencing the changes during this time, Andreas sees tourism as a chance to create a better world.

I think todays episode should be very interesting to many of you, because of the destination that we will be talking about. This destination is almost like a second home to many Norwegians and I think also globally this is a very popular place to go. We are talking about the Canary Islands.
My guest today is John Dale Beckley.
John is the founder and manager of the Sustainable Tourism non profit CANARY GREEN, which is the only English speaking non profit dedicated to sustainable tourism on the Canary Islands. They want to help the ~14 million tourists visiting the Islands each year to travel more sustainably. That is why they have made it their mission to showcase and promote the responsible and sustainable initiatives on the Canary Islands. Together with local businesses and travelers globally they help create this positive and necessary change.
