This page is not written in the language of a corporate report.

All guests receive a reusable metal bottle, and a centralized water purification system provides clean drinking water free of charge. On the current ESG page, TVPalm reports 2025 results of approximately 12,000 plastic bottles eliminated each year, a 78 percent reduction in plastic waste compared with conventional lodges, and 65 percent of operational waste sorted and diverted from landfill.<\/p>\n<h3>Smaller groups, lower-impact journeys<\/h3>\n<p>The same page makes the operating model very clear. Every group is limited to a maximum of eight guests. There are no mass-tourism departures, and routes are adjusted seasonally to avoid overuse of sensitive areas. TVPalm also reports that this model creates 35 to 50% less environmental pressure than tours carrying 15 to 20 people, with zero recorded environmental violations and 94% of guests highlighting the peaceful, uncrowded experience.<\/p>\n<h3>Regeneration that can be measured<\/h3>\n<p>From 2023 to 2025, TVPalm states that it planted more than 2,100 native trees and supported assisted natural regeneration across 3 hectares of forest, with an 82 percent survival rate after 18 months. That matters because regeneration is not described here as a slogan. It is presented as a practical, measurable effort to help the landscape become healthier over time.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-25461\" src=\"https:\/\/tvpalm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Environmental-Impact-ESG.jpg\" alt=\"Environmental Impact &amp; ESG\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tvpalm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Environmental-Impact-ESG.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/tvpalm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Environmental-Impact-ESG-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Society and governance: responsibility must be visible<\/h2>\n<p>TVPalm also states that 70% of the team are local people, 100 percent of guides come from the Tay Con Linh Sustainable Tourism Cooperative, wages are 15 to 25 percent above the local tourism industry average, and 42 guides have been trained in advanced safety and terrain standards. It further states that 20 to 30% of annual net profit is reinvested into community and environmental initiatives, alongside daily safety briefings, real-time route risk assessment, weekly operational reporting, and an annual sustainability review.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25477\" src=\"https:\/\/tvpalm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Travelers.jpg\" alt=\"Travelers\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tvpalm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Travelers.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/tvpalm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Travelers-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>What this means for guests?<\/h2>\n<p>Guests feel this not through a long explanation, but through practical details: a reusable bottle instead of a disposable one, safe water that is offered freely, a smaller and quieter group on the trail, and the sense that care for people, forest, and operations is built into the experience itself.<\/p>\n<h2>Our long-term commitment<\/h2>\n<p>TVPalm is not trying to make these ideas sound bigger than they are. What matters is keeping words and practice closely aligned, so that environmental, social, and governance responsibility remain visible, grounded, and worthy of trust.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At TVPalm, responsibility for the environment, for people, and for the way the business is run does not sit outside the guest experience.
