    Exploring Sustainable Tourism: A Global Perspective

    In this shared episode of Big Blend Radio’s "Wanderers Compass" Travel Podcast, Joelle Machia and Ryan Slough, founders of the Wanderers Compass Travel Blog, explore the global importance of sustainable tourism and the growing call for responsible travel. This is the episode that inspired the new podcast Table & Compass. It originally aired in Nov. 2025. They discuss their recent experiences at the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York City, where Joelle spoke on sustainable tourism. The role of water, equality, and cultural preservation were central themes, reflecting on how tourism impacts local communities—from small towns to major cruise destinations. The conversation highlights the importance of engaging local voices (especially women), protecting biodiversity, and preserving authenticity in travel experiences. Through inspiring stories and examples of successful sustainable practices around the world, this episode reminds travelers that small, mindful actions can make a big difference in creating a more responsible, connected world. 📰 Read their article “Sustainable Tourism at the UN”: https://www.wandererscompass.com/sustainable-tourism-at-the-un/   🌐 Learn more and Wanderers Compass: https://www.wandererscompass.com/   📅 New episodes of Wanderers Compass air every second Monday on Big Blend Radio.
