Global Warming is the biggest challenge in human history.
We can win this battle with support from everyone concerned.
I have visited Thor Heyerdahl Climate Park in Myanmar and experienced an effective process with local and global impact.

Inspired by Thor Heyerdahl’s impressive achievements for sustainable development, Sundt Air became the first company to support the mangrove restoration project in Myanmar. A sustainable future is only possible if everyone takes responsibility for their own emissions. Our commitment is in the best interest of our customers and staff, sharing our vision for a sustainable world.
Tor Bratli CEO Sundt Air, Norway
When planning to launch a new airline, we decided to meet all environmental standards, including zero carbon footprint and offer the same to our passengers. We found the proposal to plant mangroves in the vulnerable Delta Area the most cost effective as it also includes urgent needs in support to disadvantaged communities. This gives double return of our investment.
