Guides towards a Grounded Organisation 

Air travel often accounts for a large proportion of an organisation’s climate impact.

Many organisations that want to mitigate global warming realise that they must question their fundamental modes of business travel. At the same time there are often just a few people within a university,  organisation or company who see the urgent need for grounding business travel. They often face obstacles and don’t know where and how to start organisational change.

Do you want to ground your organisation?

Then have a look at our new guides!
