"Eco-Friendly: How Sustainability is Redefining Tourism and Hospitality" More hotels and restaurants are now choosing to source their food and products from nearby suppliers, prioritizing sustainability. This not only benefits the environment and supports ethical practices but also provides guests with a unique and authentic experience. Consider a small hotel nestled in a beautiful countryside area. They've opted to obtain most of their food from local farmers. While this decision has its merits, it also comes with some pros and cons. Pros: Environmental Sustainability: By sourcing locally, establishments contribute to environmental preservation by reducing carbon footprints associated with long-distance transportation. Community Support and Economic Impact: Supporting local farmers and businesses helps strengthen the community and has a positive economic impact. Authentic Guest Experience: Guests can enjoy a more genuine and unique experience, connecting with the local culture through the food they consume. Seasonal Variability: Embracing seasonal ingredients adds variety to the menu, offering guests a chance to savor the freshest produce throughout the year. Cons: Limited Product Availability: Depending on local factors, the availability of certain products may be limited, potentially restricting menu options. Cost Fluctuations: Prices of locally sourced products may vary, impacting the overall cost of goods for the establishment. Logistical Challenges: Coordinating with multiple local suppliers can pose logistical challenges, affecting the efficiency of the supply chain. By navigating these challenges, hotels and restaurants can contribute to a more sustainable and responsible approach to hospitality, providing guests with an enriched and eco-friendly experience.

Sustainability Matters at Sommething's Brewing - https://bit.ly/3LCKVlD In a recent piece from Dr. Gaurav Chawla, who was a leader at the University of South Wales for the BA (Hons) Hotel and Hospitality Management course, he said, “In simple words, sustainability means that natural ecosystems can continue to support life and provide resources to meet the needs of the present and future generations.”  He continued, “Evidently, the hotel (Hospitality) sector puts increased pressure on the environment and is demanding on the natural resources. However, the industry also relies on the same natural environment – unspoiled landscapes, sandy beaches, turquoise waters, glaciers, waterfalls, coral reefs, and fresh air; all of which serve as great tourist attractions. Therefore, there is an inherent danger that we might harm the very basis on which hospitality is built.” #sustainability #hospitality #environment

Another great case study delivered by the team 👏 All hotels should have SMART FLOW device installed. Not just for the fast ROI but for the detection of all future water issues. It's not "if" you get an issue within your Hotel its more a case of "when". Not all leaks or faulty appliances are visible. Typically your only way to know if you have an issue is due to a high water bill. #watermonitoring #watersavings #sustainability

This is perhaps only the second hotel I have seen this far where they don’t provide mineral water but only a jug for self service refill of water in the corridor. 🏅However, this is absolutely the way to go to reduce plastic wastage. 🍶What I like about this machine is the storytelling effect - it shares the number of bottles saved and in this case it’s 14,742 just on this floor. Great initiative. Hope more hotels and the MICE industry adopt this concept. 👏Special call-out to Cititel Mid Valley hotel. ♻️Which other hotels have you seen such mineral water reduction initiatives? #esg #reducewaste #reduceplasticwaste #hotel #hospitality #malaysia #jenelim

HOTELS July 2023 - WILDFIRES IN EUROPE, CHINA and NORTH AMERICA. Lots of “things” are connected and sometimes in strange ways – Here’s one: 1.      Holiday makers flee their hotels because of wildfires. 2.      Hotels put around 5,000,000 used mattresses into landfill every year. 3.      Landfill creates CO2 and methane. 4.      CO2 and methane are greenhouse gases. 5.      Greenhouse gases increase temperatures causing wildfires. 6.      Holiday makers flee their hotels because of wildfires. Every bit helps - www.ammique.com (no landfill ever). Every hotel can help.
