ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

The world's first zero-waste trip - a wildlife safari in Yellowstone National Park - is here

TerraCycle Include USA
To meet its goals, Natural Habitat will supply guests with zero-waste toolkits including reusable items like coffee mugs and cutlery. Sprinter vehicles will be outfitted with composting and recycling systems including TerraCycle, which breaks down hard-to-recycle items like granola bar wrappers. To ensure the trip is 100% carbon neutral, the company will offset the emissions from all flights, vehicles, hotels and boats used during the tour through programs such as reforestation initiatives. Guests will also have the option to offset their international or domestic pre-tour flights if they choose. The price of the trip — which starts at $5,695 — will be the same as Natural Habitat’s regular Yellowstone safaris. And in turn, Whelan says he hopes the experience will inspire partner hotels, restaurants and guests to embrace zero-waste techniques.
