Why being Eco-Friendly is important to us.
At Base Surf Lodge we want to be more eco-friendly, quite simply because we love and care for our environment. As a couple we spend our lives outdoors surfing in the summers and skiing in the winters. Living by the sea and in the mountains means we are lucky to always be surrounded by nature and wildlife. The unspoilt, snow-covered landscapes and the feeling of wilderness in the mountains is what draws us back year after year. While spending the summer months surfing in the ocean gives us a real sense of freedom and a true passion we cannot imagine life without. Hence why our appreciation for the natural world grows each day.
As skiers and surfers we are always excited for perfect conditions, whether that means a bluebird powder day or perfect crystal clear waves. Sadly, what is becoming more and more of a reality is how environmental issues are impacting the world we live in. During the last few winters in the French Alps, we have had many days of rain in months you would always expect to be below freezing. Also you only have to watch David Attenborough’s Blue Planet II to know the world’s oceans are filling with plastic. More and more environmental issues are being brought to light with the help of social media and the news. However the most eye opening reality check is seeing it for yourselves. From the top of Scotland to the tip of Cornwall and all over the world, environmental issues are a growing problem and we want to start taking action to help.
Small things make a big difference.
Here at Base Surf Lodge we know that, at the moment, we’re far from perfect. This is why we are taking action. From now on we will always be looking for practical ways to reduce our carbon footprint and our plastic usage to be more eco-friendly.
The aim is to share with you, our successes and challenges in moving towards a more sustainable life. This is in hope that we can join together and fight for a ‘greener’, more sustainable future.
