The EcoChit Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

EcoChit is a leader in environmental stewardship.

A Shared Vision<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The partnership between Blue Mountain and EcoChit is a match made in eco-heaven! We both understand the urgency of saving our planet and know that businesses hold the key to driving positive change. Together, we\u2019re like a dynamic duo fighting for the greater good. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve embarked on an exciting journey of transitioning our Dining, Lodging, Guest Services, and Retail operations over to EcoChit\u2019s eco-friendly recyclable receipt paper. Plus, for every case of EcoChit paper purchased, they plant two trees in our EcoChit Forest.<\/a> This means that we have the potential to contribute to planting about 764 trees every year. That\u2019s enough green power to create a forest of sustainability!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue\u2019s Contribution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blue\u2019s dedication to environmental conservation is evident through the planting of 462 Mangrove trees<\/a> in two locations: the Kandrany forest in Madagascar and the Mteza Creek in Kenya through our EcoChit Forest. These endeavours not only contribute to the restoration of vital ecosystems but also provide support to local communities and promote biodiversity. With an unwavering commitment to sustainability, Blue Mountain will continue to engage in projects that safeguard and preserve our planet\u2019s resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
