Travel Wild partners with EarthCheck

Brisbane - In an exciting new development for the tourism industry, Travel Wild has partnered with EarthCheck to launch a series of television shows highlighting destinations and hotels that have taken sustainability to heart.

EarthCheck is widely acknowledged as the global leader in sustainable travel and tourism environmental management systems, with more than 1000 organisations in over 70 countries using their science and technology. Among these are market leaders such as ACCOR, InterContinental Hotels Group, Sandals Resorts International, Banyan Tree and Club Med.

In a world increasingly confused by varying shades of green, the EarthCheck brand offers consumers a simple way to quickly recognise those companies that are operating to international best practice standards and have had their eco credentials independently verified.

Fronted by effervescent presenter Lin Sutherland, Travel Wild currently airs on the Discovery Travel Network and has a potential footprint of 100 million viewers worldwide. The show has traditionally shone the spotlight on Australian destinations, but series two will broaden its content focus to include exotic destinations from Mexico to the Maldives and beyond.

Coupled with the show, the Travel Wild website (www.travelwild.tv) will allow viewers to find out more about the properties and tours profiled, as well as access special EarthCheck deals.

Travel Wild is currently on air and Series Two is in production.
