Today’s market is being reshaped to adapt itself to increased attention toward sustainable solutions, climate-change mitigation measures, and actions for habitat and biodiversity preservation. 

Here’s how to become a sustainable business, contributing to the creation of a new tourism industry: 

• Implement Sustainable Practices: Ensure that your business is genuinely applying sustainable practices. This might include energy-efficient lighting, water conservation measures, waste reduction and recycling initiatives. Go beyond just the physical property and consider the amenities you offer. By providing refillable soap dispensers, recycled paper products, or even organic and locally sourced snacks, you can reduce waste and provide a sustainable experience for guests. 
• Educate Guests: Make sure your guests understand the sustainable practices you have in place and how they can help by conserving resources during their stay. This can be done through educational materials, signage, or even in-person discussions.
• Partner with Local Organizations: Establish partnerships with local organizations that prioritize sustainability, such as recycling centers or conservation groups. This helps to strengthen your commitment to sustainability and also provides opportunities for guests to get involved in local initiatives during their stay.
• Documentation: Create detailed documentation outlining your sustainable practices. This will serve as evidence to booking platforms and guests that you’re genuinely committed to sustainability. Make sure to include third-party independent certifications or awards when available.
