ECOsmart is the fastest-growing sustainable accreditation system focused on helping organisations to meaningfully fight the climate crisis. These efforts cover a range of sectors, including hotels and meeting venues. Within this industry it is increasingly recognised as the credible marque that organisations can display to demonstrate their commitment to environmental sustainability and achievement of recognised standards. Achieving this commendation requires organisations to meet high standards in sustainability across several categories, including energy and water usage, waste management and recycling, catering, staff engagement, customers and working with suppliers that also adopt environmentally friendly approaches. |
