Why do we need to act?
Why do we need to act?
- Our clean beaches and waters, pristine natural environments and wildlife are a key attraction for international and domestic visitors to Queensland.
- Queensland and Australia need to remain at least competitive globally with competing destinations that are increasing their sustainability and embarking on their own climate change responses.
- The cost savings and significant efficiency gains of sustainable action make business sense.
- Customers are becoming more aware of the effect businesses have on the environment and are increasingly discerning in their purchase decisions.
- Sustainability is a central theme of the Queensland Tourism Strategy.
