London, 11th November, 1430 hrs: On the auspicious occasion of the World Responsible Tourism Day, Fiona Jeffrey, President of World Travel Mart, launched the website of the Green Circuit, www.thegreencircuit.net. Present were four of the five promoters of the Green Circuit, socialtours.com, The Blue Yonder, Spiti Ecosphere and Help Tourism. Grass Routes Journeys were not present, but were represented by the other members of the circuit. This is in essence the purpose of such a initiative. It fosters joint marketing, hand holding etc. for the operators, and for the market offers a circle of trust, a circle where when one enters with one operator, discovery of other amazing products across regions is inevitable.
