🌍 Phasing out single-use plastics by 2030
🌍 Enacting policies to end the scourge of fast fashion & its reliance on plastic materials, and
🌍 Investing in innovative technologies to help transition away from plastic

We’re pleased to see an increased awareness and consideration towards single use plastics across the travel industry in hotels, rail, airlines and airports, to name a few. 🛏️🚆✈️
