Glasgow Declaration on Climate Action in Tourism
Our leadership feels strong towards moving to Go Green, clean and safe environment as saving the environment is of prime concern to us. As Eco-friendly is becoming more and more important we promote Eco-friendly green living which helps in conserving energy and also reduces air, water and noise pollution. The quality of the environment, both natural and man-made, is essential to tourism. Tourism has the potential to create beneficial effects on the environment by contributing to environmental protection and conservation. It is a way to raise awareness of environmental values and it can serve as a tool to finance protection of natural areas and increase their economic importance; this is what drives us to become a signatory to the Glasgow Declaration.
We also create environmentally conscious workplaces that encourage a stronger and happier workforce. We motivate and encourage our employees to move to Go Green environment. We promote storing the documents online to save papers; invest in office plants, conserve human energy, avoid use of plastics products, don’t invest in idle equipment, buy products with less packaging and encourage sustainable transportation. We avoid disposable water bottles and use reusable water bottles as far as possible. We maintain a clean & environmentally-friendly office.
As electric vehicles being Eco-friendly, our leadership has adopted the use of electric cars. We are also contemplating for using electric vehicles to transport tourists.
We commit to act now and accelerate climate action to cut global tourism emissions by at least a half over the next decade and reach Net Zero emissions as soon as possible before 2050. We commit to deliver a concrete climate action plan, or updated plan, within 12 months of signing. Plans will be aligned with the proposed pathways of measurement, decarbonisation, regeneration, collaboration and financing that will accelerate tourism’s ability to transform.
