“ Hotels can play a major role in reducing their overall carbon footprints by simply reducing food waste and also by putting plant-based options on the menu . In Radisson Hotel Group EMEA today 35 % of our menu options are already plant-based ( vegetarian or vegan ). This is helping us and our clients to make an impact .”
Radisson Hotel Group has also signed an agreement with Too Good To Go – a social enterprise that operates in multiple countries in Europe . They connect the public with hospitality providers who have leftover meals to sell at the end of the day at an affordable set price , which helps the hotel avoid food waste and , at the same time , provides a service to the local consumers .
Stronger together Sustainability is a pre-competitive topic . Honouring the UN Sustainable Development Goal 17 – Partnership for the Goals – Radisson Hotel Group engages in key industry fora to help make tangible change .
In May 2020 , we put the power of the collective in action together with the World Travel and Tourism Council , when we helped create the Safe Travel Guidelines which are now adopted by over 300 destinations worldwide .
Radisson Hotel Group also plays an active role in the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance , an organisation which is promoting responsible hospitality for a better world . It comprises 13 companies totally committed to working
