MPO as an eco-friendly travel company

31st May 2023

It's time for us all to focus on minimizing our environmental impact on the world, and as an eco-travel company, MPO is continuously evaluating our green choices to support not only the island of Menorca’s own eco and sustainability ethos, but the whole planet too.

Making Green Choices for Travel

How to be a more responsible traveller can be confusing, so to aid conscientious travellers in making sustainable travel choices, we work with our clients to share information and advice about Menorca’s sustainability efforts and rules through our platforms and digital marketing materials and how visitors themselves can be eco-aware while staying on the island.

As a sustainable travel company, we work with villa owners to make better, greener choices – from eliminating single use plastics such as miniature shampoos and shower gels to using energy-efficient appliances. We also encourage our holidaymakers to make green choices – from the most economical way of using air conditioning and the recycling of materials to encouraging the purchase of only locally-sourced food and products during their stay. We encourage them to support businesses on the island who have received the Biosphere Reserve Seal, a special recognition for their positive impact on the island for their efforts to support sustainability.

Making Green Choices as a Travel Company

 

 

Always striving to be an eco-business, MPO also limits the amount of printed booking information we share with our clients by providing an online portal where they view documents digitally. We have an employee in permanent residence on the island to reduce the amount of air travel to Menorca other members of the team carry out. Our team also work from home, reducing the carbon-footprint of commuting to an office. MPO as an eco-conscious company will continue to find new ways to support Menorca and the planet.
