Eco-Tourism & Sustainable Tourism

By working towards balancing your triple bottom line of environment, society and profit, we enhance the outreach of the tourism industry while providing communication, marketing, educational outreach and strategic planning to give your destination the competitive advantage and increased market share that sustainable tourism brings in. The environmental, social, cultural, and economic wellbeing of the destination is balanced with the protection of our natural resources and environmental stability and care of those resources.

Tourism is the second largest industry in the United States and provides economic stability as interaction and appreciation for travel, leisure, recreation, local food and a sense of place where hotels, meeting venues and destinations play a significant role. Tourism providers engage people by providing exposure to natural, cultural and historical community values.

A growing number of people want to visit green destinations, just as they seek out hybrid cars, organic food, non-toxic cleaning supplies, and renewable energy. Green Lodging Hotels have a substantial role in endorsing positive practices within the travel industry. They are a direct source to encourage people to reduce their impact on the community and its resources. Sustainable tourism practices reduce costs and create pro-active opportunities for socially responsible travel practices while educating travelers.

Stay-cations are becoming very popular and provide opportunities for reduced travel expenses while enjoying the communities we live in. How many times have you said to someone “I didn’t know that was here” or “I’ve never been there” or had out of town visitors hat have inquired about a certain destination that you hadn’t visited yourself? There are so many eco-tourism activities and destinations that benefit from local participation and support. This is an investment in ourselves and our community. Local money spent supports our own economy while saving us money in travel expenses. A dollar spent in our local establishments vs. a national chain has three times the effect in our own local economy. We encourage you to find your own sense of home and visit our many, varied eco-tourism operators and venues.

We provide seamless collaboration and partnering between a variety of organizations to maximize the resources and availability to our clients while minimizing overhead. We coordinate communications, marketing, programs, and partnerships to provide additional avenues for strengthening collaboration for communities and business. We encourage environmental outreach and the education these providers share with their patrons. Strengthening the eco-tourism industry in our area is a win-win for all!  Enjoy it!

We encourage sustainable tourism development by:

• Identifying eco-tourism operators and pro-actively linking people and resources
• Providing educational links, communication and training in social marketing
• Developing tourism groups and community assets to nurture social responsibility
• Support eco-tourism and agri-tourism operators in community outreach methods
