AE Expeditions has released its inaugural impact report showcasing its “efforts to embed sustainable practices across all areas of the business”.

Titled ‘Protecting the World’s Wild Places’, it reviews the line’s programme of initiatives, with particular focus on the planet and people.

These programmes have the “overarching goal of reducing negative impacts on the environment and communities, contributing to building a more sustainable world for future generations”, it added.

AE Expeditions said the report acknowledges that the company’s emissions reduction plan is ongoing, and highlights its plan for B Corp certification, which it expects to be completed by the end of 2024.
