Iberostar Wave of Change
Iberostar Hotels and Resorts wishes to offer some clear examples of responsible tourism and a commitment to the ocean, and so it has created a programme known as Wave of Change, with a number of courses of action to achieve these objectives.
This talk will explain the main goals of the Wave of Change initiative, which include making Iberostar Hotels and Resorts plastic-free, waste-free and carbon-neutral. To do this, the company is embarking upon several courses of action in this respect – an undertaking to ensure that fish and seafood at its restaurants are from responsible sources, for instance.
A roadmap will be provided on the reparatory and regenerative securing of resources, the usage and final usage of water, energy, and the products used at group hotels. These courses of action are being taken to preserve our oceans.
