At a crucial time in the fight against climate change, it is essential to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Currently, we have already reached 1.1°C and are experiencing its effects, which means that the window of opportunity to meet our target and avoid the most catastrophic impacts of climate change is rapidly closing. Protecting and responsibly managing the environmental and cultural values that attract visitors to destinations will be critical, and the tourism sector and its operators have a vital role to play in driving this positive change.

Stewart Moore, CEO and founder of EarthCheck, praised the outstanding sustainability leadership position taken by The Fives Beach Hotel & Residences.

Commenting on the great work the hotel has done, Mr. Moore said, “I would like to congratulate the entire team at The Fives Beach Hotel & Residences on their achievement. The Fives Beach Hotel & Residences is a valued member of a global group of tour operators who dare to make a difference.”
