Build Back Greener: the Future of Sustainable Tourism in Virginia
This is a critical time in our lives. The industry was impacted in so many ways by the pandemic, social justice issues and more. The health of the industry and our loved ones and co-workers and the health of our nation overall…well, it’s been quite a struggle. And while the struggle isn’t over, we’ve all learned a lot about who we are and what we need to do to keep our businesses alive. We are stronger. We are better prepared and we are resolved even more to leave this world better than it was.
This is a time for healing and rebirth. A chance for real progress. Whenever a piece of equipment wears out, it is an opportunity to replace it with something that is more efficient and better for our bottom line…and better for the environment.
Well, the time is now to replace a lot of old stuff and ideas. And oh yeah, we are also rallying together to face a climate crisis. Let’s invest in the future with a renewed commitment to sustainable practices and renewable energy. Let’s work with our customers and our communities to create a sustainable tomorrow for our kids and grandchildren.
We can do this together! Please join us in Richmond as we chart a course for building back greener!
