During Ireland's #SDG Week 2024 we are highlighting sustainability best practices. Respecting & preserving our #biodiversity is vital for the future of the #tourism industry. Where are your favourite eco-tourism spots in #Cork? @Dept_ECC @EuropeanSDWeek #sustourismcork #wearecork

How can #tourism #hospitality industry help Ireland reach its ambitious EU #circulareconomy targets for #plastics #recycling (50% in 2025 / 55% in 2030)? Even better, can we eliminate single-use plastics? Offer free water refills for reusable bottles? #corksustourism #ESDW2024

Today is World #Tourism Day 2024 and the @UNWTO is focusing on the theme of “Tourism and peace”. Tourism can bring people together and transform communities. Find out more: https://t.co/c3kGY3hIEt #corksustourism #sustainability @TourismIreland

1 million tonnes of #foodwaste is generated every year in Ireland! We can all contribute to reducing this figure by making some significant changes. Cutting down portion sizes? Proper composting? Any other best practice ideas for #tourism? #FoodWasteEU #corksustourism @EU_Health

[CorkConventionBureau @Conference_Cork]

Amid a significant shortage of staff in Ireland's #tourism #hospitality sectors, how can we make the industry more attractive? Are we 'best in class' when it comes to workplace #wellbeing, supporting diversity, equity & inclusion? #corksustourism #DEI #ESDW2024 #Sustainability
