Influence

Ecostreamjet believes influence goes hand in hand with education, but extends beyond simply educating its clients. That’s why founder Ric Shiarella actively engages private air travelers, flight operators and industry peers in a dialogue around sustainable business practices. He does this in several ways:

The Captain's Blog

Ric authors The Captain’s Blog, featured on Ecostreamjet.com, in which he discusses the challenges and rewards of adopting sustainability in the private aviation industry.

National Environmental Associations

Ric regularly reaches out to national environmental associations and other organizations that address the global climate crisis. These ties range from informal relationships to formal partnerships and help Ric stay abreast of the latest research, legislation and policy developments around sustainability. More to the point, they help Ecostreamjet develop its own sustainability policies.

One such organization is NativeEnergy, whose carbon offsets fund clean, renewable energy projects in communities around the country. Learn more about the projects Ecostreamjet funds through Native Energy carbon offsets by visiting the “offset” page.
