Today, there is greater expectation for business to lead and demonstrate commitment to a sustainable future with accountability and transparency. More leaders want to do the right thing on issues of climate and sustainability, but we are not yet seeing the deep transformation, systems change and carbon reduction that is urgently needed, and it's time to reset ambitions.
We exist to make travel more sustainable for travellers staying in hotels. We help to make these businesses stronger by doing good and 'giving more to the world than they take'.
NOW is an advisor and facilitator to hospitality companies and education institutions with courage to advance sustainability with accountable and transparency, and its goals to support the UN Global Goals and be Climate Positive (also known as Carbon Negative).
NOW Vision
A world where travellers, tourism, the environment and society can prosper together today and into the future.

Businesses that tackle the climate crisis as a ‘crisis’. Sustainable business practices that drive transformative system change so greenwash and the acceptance of poor environmental and social performance are no longer acceptable. Raise the bar on reporting standards and make sustainability a SOP and core to all strategies.

Climate Positive, also known as Carbon Negative, is better than Net Zero
The alarming 2022 UN Climate Report made it clear that rising global emissions must peak before 2025 and decrease by half this decade when our planet will likely reach 1.5°C (2.7°F), causing climate breakdown and irreversible destruction in nature.
Use the power with your wallet and your vote NOW.
Only support credibly sustainable companies with 3rd party expert audit that aim to be Net Zero or better (Climate Positive, also known as Carbon Negative) before 2030 and support the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Call out companies that Greenwash OR Goalwash (misleading ‘green’ messages OR claiming 'UN Sustainable Development Goals' (SDG) with no proof - to increase profit).
