Yesterday, Canary Green had the pleasure of participating in the Sustainable Connections & Drinks: Remote Workers Meetup a gathering organized by Pueblos Remotos, that brought together passionate individuals dedicated to promoting sustainability within their professional and personal lives. And a special thanks to Cuarto Veintitrés for facilitating the event and providing such a welcoming co-working space that allowed these important discussions to flourish.
Insights from Our Founder
John Becks – known as our “Leader of Inspiration”, was one of the invited speakers at the event. John took the stage to share the heart and soul of Canary Green, passionately discussing our core mission and the essential role that sustainability plays in both our daily routines and business practices.
During his talk, John emphasized the importance of integrating sustainable methods into our everyday lives. He highlighted how small, consistent efforts in sustainability can lead to significant positive changes, not only for the environment but also for businesses looking to make a lasting impact.
A Gathering of Like Minds: Networking for a Greener Future
The event was more than just a series of speeches; it was a vibrant networking opportunity that brought together remote workers, entrepreneurs, and sustainability enthusiasts from various industries. Attendees had the chance to connect with like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and explore innovative ways to promote sustainability in their respective fields.
The energy in the room was contagious, as everyone shared a common goal: to drive positive change and build a more sustainable future. The conversations that took place were not just about ideas but also about actionable steps that can be implemented immediately to make a difference.
At Canary Green, we are thrilled to have been a part of such an inspiring event. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with others who share our vision and to continue spreading the message of sustainability. We look forward to participating in more networking events like this in the future, where we can further our mission of integrating sustainable practices into every aspect of life and business.
Together, we can make a difference – one sustainable step at a time.

Canary Green’s tips to enjoying sustainable tourism in Tenerife
Visiting Tenerife on holiday doesn’t give you free rein to leave your values and principles at home. We encourage travellers to seek out sustainable options and keep up with environmental practices while travelling. Our top tips for a relaxed and wholesome stay include:
- Consider green transport options. Are you able to take a ferry to the island instead of flying? While you are here is a car necessary? Investigate public transport links or choose green options such as electric cars, green-hydrogen cars or e-bikes.
- Choose destinations that value sustainability and choose green alternatives such as solar power, recycling and energy-efficient architecture. This extends to places that value workers’ rights and the impact on the local community.
- Bring your own water bottle with you and refill it instead of buying single-use plastic bottles.
- Make use of the recycling when out and about and don’t just throw your rubbish in the nearest bin.
- Take advantage of local knowledge and immerse yourself in the culture through campaigns such as #Ilovecanarias and #meatfreemondaycanarias.
- Most of all, have fun and enjoy your time in the Canary Islands.
