IAATO CLIMATE CHANGE COMMITTEE In 2024, the IAATO Climate Change Committee focused on emissions monitoring and reduction. A Quark Expeditions employee served as vice-chair, helping steer climate efforts. The committee updated strategy guidance, improved fuel data processes and prepared the important annual climate survey. Key achievements included publishing Beyond Fuel: IAATO Sustainability and Emissions Reduction Guidance to support operational emission cuts beyond fuel switching. The committee also collaborated on low-carbon fuel options and co-hosted a technical webinar for vessel operators.

AECO ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP COMMITTEE Quark Expeditions also served on the AECO Climate Change Working Group, which supported the creation of the AECO climate commitment and roadmap to reducing emissions in 2024. The working group evolved into the Environmental Stewardship Committee during 2024, expanding its focus beyond climate to encompass broader environmental protection initiatives across Arctic expedition operations.
