Net Zero Tourism Journey
Overview
In recent years, Net Zero has become a globally recognized keyword representing humanity’s collective goal and the strong commitment of nations, organizations, and individuals dedicated to securing a greener future for Earth.
With over 15 years of pioneering sustainable and eco-friendly tourism, Oxalis has been at the forefront of implementing environmentally friendly solutions, conserving nature, and raising community awareness toward Net Zero.

These efforts have not only yielded tangible results in emission reduction but also contributed to the sustainable development of local socio-economic conditions and enhanced business efficiency.
The Net Zero Tourism Journey Course is designed to share practical insights combined with immersive experiences at the Net Zero Accommodation – Blue Diamond Retreat. Participants will gain in-depth and hands-on experience, including emission measurement, mitigation planning, and the application of sustainable solutions at Oxalis’s eco-friendly camping model.
