When we talk about peace, we often think about relationships between people and nations. But there's another kind of peace we need to consider: peace with our planet. As Servas travelers committed to building a better world, our choices about how we travel matter more than ever.

THE CONNECTION BETWEEN TRAVEL AND ENVIRONMENT

Every journey we take has an impact. The flights we book, the transportation we choose, the resources we consume—all of these affect the environment we share with billions of others. Climate change doesn't respect borders, and its effects are felt most severely by communities who've contributed least to the problem.

As peace travelers, we have a responsibility to minimize our environmental footprint while maximizing our positive impact on the communities we visit.
