Oxalis's direction and commitment to achieving Net Zero
Climate change is happening rapidly and has wide-reaching effects on many areas, including tourism. Rising temperatures, sea levels, and extreme weather events reduce the quality of tourist destinations and directly threaten the lives of local communities. To address this situation, Net Zero Tourism – a model aimed at achieving net-zero emissions – is considered an urgent and sustainable solution helping protect the environment and ensures the industry's long-term growth.
From the start, Oxalis Adventure Tours aimed to create sustainable tourism products. The next step in its strategy is moving toward Net Zero tourism. By pioneering this approach, Oxalis helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions from tourism and builds a solid brand for attract eco-conscious travelers. This move reinforces Oxalis's status as a top adventure tourism company in Vietnam and shows that protecting the environment is both a duty and an intelligent business strategy.
To gradually achieve this goal, Oxalis launched the Net Zero Project by measuring greenhouse gas emissions across the company, covering all three scopes: 1, 2, and 3. This initial step is crucial for accurately assessing the emissions generated by the company's activities. Based on the results and an analysis of emission sources, Oxalis currently has a relatively low emission level in scopes 1 and 2. Most emissions come from scope 3, specifically indirect emissions from the supply chains of goods and materials used in operations.
To address this reality, Oxalis offers specific solutions to reduce emissions in Scope 1 and 2, such as promoting renewable energy in tourism and investing in eco-friendly vehicles. Additionally, choosing green products, partnering with sustainable suppliers, and gaining support from local communities, authorities, customers, and employees are crucial to achieving the company's Net Zero goals.
Collaborate with Oxalis to create a net-zero tourism future
Oxalis understands that building Net Zero tourism requires the effort of every individual and organization to contribute to the global Net Zero picture. The company sees this as a process that demands great perseverance and unity. Promoting action and spreading awareness of the practical significance of the Net Zero goal is essential. Therefore, Oxalis takes proactive steps to encourage cooperation and gradually achieve this goal through specific actions.
Promote collaboration among all company members
To foster unity and a sense of responsibility in achieving Net Zero, Oxalis has implemented a comprehensive training program covering both basic theory and practical applications. Equipping all employees with in-depth knowledge of climate change and Net Zero solutions raises awareness and creates a strong foundation for collective action. Oxalis has also developed a clear workflow and a strict monitoring system to ensure Net Zero initiatives are carried out seriously and effectively. The persistence and commitment of the entire team are key factors in reaching this goal.

Oxalis actively shares its experience and solutions with domestic and international travel companies. The goal is to share technology, initiatives, and knowledge for developing Net Zero tourism projects.
This partnership helps businesses develop eco-friendly tourism products and services together. It also creates a healthy business environment. The collaboration encourages competition and innovation.
