Environmental initiatives

Our Ideology:

"Environmental Stewardship" is a core value of Eagle Wing Tours. Eagle Wing's mission is to work with purpose and passion.

Responsible tour boat operators know that in these times of environmental crisis minimizing impact just isn't enough. The natural world has massive demands placed upon it every day and at Eagle Wing we believe that being a responsible steward means not just being quiet observers but active, positive contributors to the ecosystem we love and make our living from.

Eagle Wing Tours' commitment to environmental stewardship is multifaceted. Some are less visible efforts like the low-impact design of our whale watch tour boats and simple daily business practices that promote a healthier planet. Others boldly lead our field like the carbon neutral program we are developing and a strict adherence to industry leading "best practices" with regard to eliminating impact on the whales.

We see a future in which people all over the world can appreciate and understand the economic, social and environmental value of our relationship with nature.

More details are offered below (see links) on our climate change program, salmon population enhancement programs and our industry leading wildlife impact reduction programs.

Eagle Wing will be carbon neutral: "leave as small of a footprint as possible". Read here also about our salmon support program.

Responsible whale watching: "Eagle Wing Tours is your choice for low impact".

Your Eagle Wing captain and crew will discuss the ways in which citizens can become involved in the positive fate of these beautiful animals. Your questions are welcome, your curiosity commended and your business appreciated as part of a positive contribution to both our lives and those of the Southern Resident killer whale population.
