Enviromental Policy and Environmentally Certified

Enviromental Policy - Australia's first environmentally certified balloon flight

 

As part of our philosophy to be market leaders and innovators and with an understanding that everyone needs to play a part in reducing environmental impact, we have decided to adopt and publicly commit to an environmetal policy.  We were the first ballooning campany in Australia to make such an undertaking.

This Environmental Policy covers all activities carried out by Fly Me To The Moon.
