Radisson Hotel Group on Working Towards Sustainable Tourism
Sustainable tourism is defined by the UN World Tourism Organization as “tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities.” Tourist attractions worldwide have been finding innovative ways to ease their impact on the planet and become more sustainable. Some hotels operate entirely with sustainable materials such as using solar panels as their main source of energy, using water from nearby springs, or staffing local families in more rural areas and procuring local goods. Others operate as social enterprises, investing up to 100% of profits back into local sustainability causes.
