GREEN GLOBE LITE is designed for businesses that want to start addressing Sustainability and Climate Change.
Green Globe is the premium brand for sustainability in the Travel and Tourism Industry.
The Green Globe Lite programme provides your business with an online user friendly Health Check Framework. It assesses all Key Environmental Performances Areas within your business to help get you started.
The science behind Green Globe Lite's calculations meets international reporting standards (e.g. in Australia, NGERS reporting) for Greenhouse Gas emissions (carbon footprint). By measuring your emissions you will be prepared for mandated carbon reporting.
THE HEALTH CHECK FRAMEWORK
The Sustainability Health Check Framework will assist you to review your current business and sustainability practices. The Health Check will highlight any areas which need to be improved and will provide a simple action plan for areas which need to be addressed together with suggestions on how to do this. Areas covered in the Health Check will include the development and implementation of a Sustainability Policy and analysis of strategies to ensure minimal energy and water use and waste production.
You will be able to monitor how your energy and water consumption, and your waste production compares to the Best Practice and Baseline figures for your industry sector. That is, you will be able to report on your performance in comparison to similar operations in your sector. Over time Green Globe Lite will assist you to track your performance, for example: Reduced energy consumption = Reduced Energy Bill = Increased Profit.
THE RECOGNITION
Green Globe will award you the Green Globe Lite Logo when you complete the Health Check framework and meet your industry sector’s performance targets.
This means you will be recognised as a member of a world-wide Green Globe network, a network that is committed to reducing their impact on the environment to create a sustainable future for not only their business but also their local community.
You are encouraged to display your achievement logo, and promote your actions to your partners, staff and customers so they are aware of the steps you are taking to become a leader in Sustainability and Climate Change.
