Tourism businesses have other priorities at present, however making smart choices rather than reverting to single-use plastic can be beneficial to your recovery and can be an opportunity for:
Saving money – for instance, it’s a great time to explain to customers why you are ditching cocktail decorations and plastic straws.
Controlling the virus – Covid-19 does not last so long on cardboard and fabric compared to smoother surfaces like plastic.
Gaining positive publicity – the media is keen to hear positive stories, and you can make use of the opportunities this project provides to maximise coverage and raise awareness of your good practice
And perhaps most important of all, you will be improving the future prospects for tourism by minimising plastic litter and ensuring the coast remains beautiful!
