The Green Globe Company Standard is designed for organisations within the travel and tourism industry and sets out the criteria to attain certification

Company Process
The Green Globe Company Standard provides a framework to assess an organisation’s environmental sustainability performance, through which they can monitor improvements and achieve certification.
The Certification process varies depending on the size and environmental impact of the organization.
Note, the Green Globe program is a ‘rating’ system, that recognises and rewards sustainable practice and continual performance.
Once Certification Services have been undertaken, organisations are provided with a Certification Assessment Report which provides feedback of the organisation’s performance. The report outlines findings, opportunities for improvement, corrective actions and future audit requirements.
New hotel booking sites, such as Bookdifferent.com are working with Green Globe to provide a list of certified hotels to travelers looking for environmentally certified hotels.
