Hotel Industry Sustainability Evaluation

According to the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), the travel and tourism industries are expected to account for one in every 10 jobs on the planet by 2022. The travel and tourism industries are expected to grow by an average of 4% annually over the next 10 years, which would take it from 9% today to 10% of the World s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). A company must have a purpose beyond simply enriching shareholders, and the hotel industry has the opportunity to make a huge impact globally both socially and environmentally.
