Virtual Coffee: How hotels can minimize their use of plastics

The Less Plastic Guide is a tool to help hotels identify and reduce the use of plastics in the tourism sector. The digital tool supports them with practical measures while increasing the quality and competitiveness of their service and shows hotels the direct impact of their actions💡✨. 
The tool was developed for Central America but is easily transferable to other regions 🌎.

Eva Ringhof, manager of the GIZ project "Prevention of Plastic Waste in the Seas of Central America and the Caribbean" (Caribe Circular), where the tool was developed jointly with Sustentur will show us how the Less Plastic Guide can be successfully applied by using a practical example.

The Less Plastic Guide was recently updated as part of the GIZ project "Prevention of Plastic Waste in the Seas of Central America and the Caribbean (Caribe Circular)" in coordination with the Central American Commission for Environment and Development (CCAD), the Central American Integration System (SICA) and the Secretariat of Ecology and Environment (SEMA) of the State of Quintana Roo, Mexico. The project is funded by the European Union (EU) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
