Hyderabad Trekking Club Goes Vegan to Reduce Environmental Footprint

Starting this month, Hyderabad Trekking Club (HTC), one of?the most popular trekking and travel companies in India, will provide only vegan food during their treks to reduce their environmental footprint. The company organizes over 220 treks across India for nearly 8,000 people every year. 

“While connecting people to the wonderful nature, we try to reduce our carbon footprint as much as possible,” said Srikanth M, Cofounder of HTC. “Going vegan is one of the best ways to reduce our environmental impact on the planet!” 

Vegan Outreach India works with institutions across the country to help reduce their carbon footprint and introduce more vegan options in menus. In the past, they’ve collaborated with Zostel (India’s largest hostel chain) and students and Lovely Professional University’s Jalandhar campus to add more vegan options to their menus.

"Globally and in India, institutions are reducing their use of animal products and choosing plant-based foods to fight climate change,” said Richa Mehta, India Campaigns Manager for Vegan Outreach. “This initiative by HTC will encourage people to think about the impact of their food choices on the environment.”
