At Canary Green, sustainability goes beyond protecting nature but it also means showing compassion for all living beings. That’s why this March, our team is taking part in the Animal March to raise funds for Tenerife Animal Sanctuary, a safe haven for rescued animals on the island.
Our recent visit to the Tenerife Animal Sanctuary reminded us how important this mission truly is. Animals who have experienced neglect and hardship are given a second chance through care, medical support, and a peaceful environment. Every contribution helps ensure they continue to receive the food, shelter, and treatment they need.
Want To Help?
Want to help animals but can’t foster or volunteer right now? The Animal March is a simple way to make a real difference.
We as Canary Green are taking part and we would much appreciate funding for every kilometre we walk.

Every step helps provide food, medical care, and safe shelter for rescued animals and directly contributes to their wellbeing.
Our visit reminded us that sustainability is also about compassion. Supporting initiatives like this means standing up for those who cannot speak for themselves — and every action, no matter how small, truly makes a difference.
Canary Green’s tips to enjoying sustainable tourism in Canary Islands
Visiting Canary Islands 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.
