Responsible Tourism
The Green Horizons project is a symbol of harnessing the energy that the earth bestows upon us, in a sustainable and responsible way. Just as a pinwheel is innocent, playful, and hopeful, The Green Horizons is a representation of travel that is light, ecstatic, and guides us where the wind blows.
The blades of The Green Horizons catch the wind and are home to the Planet Friendly Touchstones, which are designed to promote eco-friendliness and environmental sustainability. The folds, important for the integrity of it all, house the People Friendly Touchstones, which focus on supporting local communities and cultural preservation.
The pivot of The Green Horizons is the human touch, represented by two tiny thumbprints. This symbolizes our commitment to responsible and sustainable travel practices, which are essential for preserving the beauty and diversity of our planet.
As we expand our horizons through travel, we realize that energy, though indestructible, is limited by the laws of nature. The Green Horizons recognizes the importance of conservation and energy efficiency in all sustainable endeavors, whether it be the preservation of heritage, building a community, or conservation of wildlife.
Through The Green Horizons project, we aim to promote positive change in the tourism industry by encouraging travelers to seek out destinations and experiences that prioritize sustainability and responsible travel practices. By supporting local communities and preserving the environment, we can create a better future for ourselves and generations to come. Join us on The Green Horizons journey, and let's explore the world in a way that is conscious, responsible, and sustainable.

The Nature Conservation Foundation (NCF) was established in 1996 as a public charitable trust. At NCF, our goal is to contribute to the knowledge and conservation of India’s unique wildlife heritage with innovative research and imaginative solutions. We work in a range of wildlife habitats—from coral reefs and tropical rainforests to the high mountains of the Himalaya. Here, we strive to understand the survival needs of endangered species such as snow leopards and elephants, as well as equally fascinating but lesser-known wildlife such as corals and spiders. Our research also addresses human resource-use and its impacts on wild species and ecosystems. Using this knowledge of wildlife ecology and human society, we design conservation strategies that are locally appropriate. These are implemented in collaboration with local communities who depend the most on natural resources, and the governments that manage them. While promoting wildlife conservation, our programmes also strive to safeguard livelihood and development options for local communities.
