WTM 2013 Taking Responsibility for Decarbonising Travel and Tourism

>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=Pb43OPf7Sec

Climate change remains a major challenge for the industry. Last year we debated whether the industry was doing enough to tackle its carbon emissions. Last year's audience clearly felt that it was not. This year either the International Civil Aviation Organisation will decide to implement an international emissions trading scheme or the EU will impose its own scheme on flights in and out of Europe. Our panel of experts will ensure that you understand the issues around the decarbonisation of flights and tourism businesses. There is an ever more pressing imperative to reduce the carbon pollution associated with our industry. • Chair: Martin Brackenbury, Director, Classic Collection Holidays • Speakers: • Dirk Aguilar, President and Co-Founder, Calasi • Andy Cooper, Director of Government and External Affairs, Thomas Cook Group • Robert McCann Corporate Responsibility Manager-Environmental Sustainability at InterContinental Hotels Group • Jonathon Counsell, Chairman, Sustainable Aviation • http://www.wtmresponsibletourism.com/
