Abstract

This study aims to investigate the process by which hospitality organisations can initiate their pursuit of environmental sustainability, utilising a literature review as the primary research method. This study explores the notion of environmental sustainability within the context of the hospitality industry and its diverse range of stakeholders. This study aims to identify the challenges encountered by the industry in attaining sustainability goals and proposes potential strategies for fostering a sustainable future. In recent decades, there has been a notable increase in industrial activity, including within the hospitality industry, which has occurred without consideration for environmental consequences, consequently leading to environmental degradation. The issue of environmental sustainability is a matter of concern for stakeholders in the hospitality industry, and a comprehensive understanding of its long-term implications needs to be improved. The significance of environmental sustainability is growing in tandem with the expansion of the global population, industrial activity, and the observed phenomena of global warming, environmental degradation, and climate change. In recent years, there has been a notable endeavour by hospitality enterprises to minimise the ecological consequences of their operations on the surrounding environment. This research will investigate the obstacles to the hospitality sector achieving environmental sustainability. It will also propose novel strategies to enhance guest service and contentment, bolster the organisation’s reputation, and foster fresh revenue streams and competitive advantage. The implications of the study’s findings extend to various stakeholders within the hospitality industry, including businesses, guests, and other relevant parties, as well as the broader environmental context.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
