Our Jungle House in Khao Sok, has a clear goal in becoming the leader of all-encompassing environmental friendly practices. That said there are limits and boundaries to accomplishable targets and long-term impacts to consider, before heading down the sustainability highway. The following lines shall shine light onto certain practices, their outcome as well as indicate potential future developments to reduce the environmental footprint Our Jungle Camp carries.

Even before the first construction effort´s it was clear that the resort will be built with the surrounding environment in mind, this included constructing buildings in an open vernacular way from re-growing resources. By incorporating the luxury of nature into the overall concept, reductions in electricity consuming appliances like water pumps, air conditioners and their like could already be avoided on the drawing board.

In the next step, our operational and consumption materials such as plastic water bottles, plastic straws, small scale packaging and so on have been miraculously taken from the menu.

Even though we are situated in one water richest regions of the world, wasting and spoiling fresh water is more than a peculiar offense. From monitoring water flow and using water saving devices like flow restrictors over using biodegradable soaps and detergents and the separation and filtration of grey and black water through grease and settlement traps, Our Jungle Camp intents to keep its water outflow into the environment as low as possible. We have managed to reduce water consumption in the past year by over 30% with implementing simple water saving measures.

Gravity fed water allows us to keep large pump usage to a minimum, during the night, walkway and general light sources are operated with timer and sensor devices to reduce unused electricity. By being as close we are to one of the biggest hydroelectric dams of Thailand. We consider our electricity purchase from a renewable energy source and therefore have neglected the utilization of Solar- or Photovoltaic systems. Nonetheless do we run our entrance sign lights on a small panel to teach the local children about this exciting form of electricity production. For all additional large consumption appliances, we have found reasonable gas operated substitutes or overall neglected their broader usage at the resort.

With many of our day to day ingredients being farmed on our onsite Organic Farm, we have further managed to cut waste production while educating our staff about farming vegetables, fruits and processing them into Thai and Foreign delicacies. Additionally, have we initiated a food forest, where local species of Durian, Mango, Banana and other tropic species are displayed and saved for future seed saving.

With our new recycling building, we have created a dedicated space to introduce large scale composting, soil mixing and general waste and trash separation. As usually here in Thailand, all created waste ends up at the same landfill, it is for us of utmost importance to separate recyclables already on our property. We have created an incentive scheme with all proceedings to be distributed among our local staff. Whereby the following prices are paid and lead to additional monthly incentive payments of THB.

Glass Bottles at 0.5-1.0 THB per kg
Aluminium Cans at 35 THB per kg
Paper, Cardboard, etc., at 5 THB per kg
Kitchen Oil at 9 THB per litre (or re-used in our bar candles)
Main Organic Waste to be processed in our compost

We are glad that the produced educational materials for sustainability, wildlife and environment has been used extensively from the guests, our staff and the local community alike. Our Jungle Camp is proud to be staffed 95% by local staff mainly from Amphoe Phanom in Surat Thani Province. By providing fair above average salaries, with an incentive bonus structure, health and accident insurance as well as vocational training (First Aid, English, Health and Safety, Hospitality and Service) and holiday and vacation days, we believe to set the way in sustainable human resource management much needed for low turnover and long term involvement of our human capital.

We are fortunate to enjoy the full support of the Khao Sok and surrounding communities, due to the long term impact and collaboration of the Jungle Life Camp. Through which we have operated 4 monthly Full Day or Overnight Environmental Education Camps for government school classes or children from the local community. Along with school break activities on topics like English Language, Nature Skills, Farming and Recycling, we believe we are on the way of having a long term impact on the youth in the community who hopefully become advocates of the sustainability movement.
