This article provides a broad overview of sustainability in the hospitality and tourist business, as well as content information on sustainability that could be useful in hospitality and tourism education. The study focuses on the following question in particular: What role does sustainability education play in the hospitality and tourism industry? Themes in sustainability education are recognised in the accommodation, meetings and events, and food and beverage sectors, as well as implementations of sustainability principles in hospitality and tourism operations and perspectives on the future direction of sustainability education in this subject.
The rapid growth of Hospitality businesses in Nigeria is increasing at an alarming rate. It is sad to note that majority of these investors have little or no knowledge of the impact that their investment has on the environment. This is because most investors only carry out feasibility study on the profit forfeiting the sustainability of the business which depends on the environment. Today hospitality investors in Nigeria have refused to answer this question “are the activities of hospitality business environmental friendly? At this point it is pertinent to note that the sustainability of any hospitality business anchors largely on environmental sustainability. In other words, all hospitality business needs the environment to strive. Therefore, in view of the above, this paper critically diagnosed the activities of Soarak hotel and casino Lagos towards environmental sustainability. Its primary objective is to identify the impact of soarak hotel on its immediate surroundings. This research made extensive use of interview and questionnaire as instruments of data collection. In conclusion, the paper recommends sustainable measures to mitigate the activities of hospitality business on the environment.

Can the Hotel Industry Help to Ensure Sustainable Tourism
Introduction
Tourism industry can be regarded as one of the fastest growing industries in the world. With the concept of sustainability promoted, people begin to wonder whether the sustainable concept can be applied to the tourism industry (Florek,2012).
In the tourism industry, the hotels work as an important sector as they provide the accommodation location for the tourists. Considering the close relationship between the hotel industry and the tourism development, the object of this paper is to explore whether the hotel industry can help to ensure sustainable tourism.
The paper will present the meaning of sustainable tourism, the impacts exerted by the hotel industry on sustainable tourism to show that hotel industry can help to ensure sustainable tourism.
An overview of sustainable tourism
The application of the sustainability in the tourism industry is mainly attributed two major factors. For one thing, tourism has become the rising industry in the world; for another, the natural resources utilized in the industry mainly include the most beautiful natural, cultural and historical places in the world. Moreover, the development of the mass tourism usually does harm to natural habitat. For example, rivers and soil are heavily polluted during the process of developing the tourism industry.
In response to all these factors related to the tourism industry, the concept of sustainable tourism has been proposed for the sake of striking balance between economic development and environmental preservation. It is also believed that sustainable tourism will be the future form for the tourism industry in the 21st century (Kostic and Jovanovic-Tocev,2014).Specifically, the United Nations has proposed that the tourism industry should bring about the benefits for the tourism industry and strengthen the cultural and environmental integrity of the host communities and natural heritages (Kostic and Jovanovic-Tocev,2014). Based on the definition, tourism operations should be planned, controlled and integrated with other economic, social and ecological activities within any community. Many aspects of the hotels industry should be collaborated for the sake of monitoring the effects exerted by the tourism industry.
Negative impacts of the hotel industry
As an indispensable part of the tourism industry, the way how the hotels operate its business can actually affect the sustainability of the tourism industry. When tourists travel from one place to another destination, they need to reside in the hotels so that they ca ...

Business’ years of operation and services offered in tourist spots were also identified in this study. This research study used a descriptive research design, and a structured interview is used as data collection tool. Participants of the study were 5 selected owners or member of association in different tourist spots in Bongabon, Nueva Ecija. Based on the research study, tourism management aspect has the highest percentage of problems encountered, this includes the factors of crowd management and LGU and owner’s participation; environmental aspect has the second highest percentage of problems encountered, this area includes nature deterioration and preservation, pollution, and construction of tourism facilities and infrastructure development; and economic aspect has the least percentage of problems encountered which includes the factors of livelihood, income and employment.

There are two types of environmental aspects: (i) Direct Environmental Aspect Activities over which a company can be expected to have an influence and control. For example, emissions from processes. (ii) Indirect Environmental Aspect Actual or Potential activities over which the organization can be expected to have an influence, but no control. The economic aspect refers to the importance of social responsibility, broad consideration of society and businesses, contribution to public interest, and corporate voluntary participation.
Assignment Three Technical Descriptions Due March 2 (1155 PM .docxlynettearnold46882
Assignment Three: Technical Descriptions
Due: March 2 (11:55 PM on Moodle)Peer:Feb 29
For this assignment you will either be creating a technical description or an extended technical definition. Officially, an extended technical definition is a microgenre of a technical description, but there are some differences worth noting. Technical descriptions are “longer explanation[s] . . . of the physical or operational features of an object, mechanism, or process”(Markel 534). While technical descriptions include technical definitions, an extended technical definition is slightly different.
An extended definition includes the three parts of a basic sentence definition, “[1] the term being defined, [2] the category in which the term belongs, and [3] the distinguishing features that differentiate it from its category” (Johnson Sheehan 155). It also expands the definition by adding more details of an object, process, or idea (Markel 534). It is divided by adding some (all) of the following: examples, partition, principle of operation, analogy, negation, and etymology (Markel 538 – 541).
Technical descriptions need a title/indication of the nature/scope of what the description will accomplish; an introduction that answers the questions in table 20.1 on page 545; a body with appropriate detail that discusses each step or section with detail, creativity, and clarity; and a conclusion that usually explains how the steps work together or summarizes the main steps. Look at the guidelines on page 547 for writing tips and additional help.
What you choose to do this on is up to you. You are free to choose any object, place, or process (and the definition of these can be pretty loose—think about my spider example). If you want to choose something that interests you, something you currently work with, something from your future workplace, or something else entirely—go for it. If you want to do something out of the ordinary you can always ask me if it’s okay.
Requirements
· The description/definition should be between 600 to 1000 words.
· It should be typed in a serif font.
· It must focus on clear writing that uses creative and technical writing techniques.
· It should be written for an audience similar to Wikipedia.
· It should follow checklist on page 571 – 572.

In the present paper, we have employed modified Khare-BEB method [Atoms, (2019)] to evaluate total ionization cross sections by the electron impact for ammonia in energy range from the ionization threshold to 10 MeV. The theoretical ionization cross sections have been compared to the available previous theoretical and experimental results. The collision parameters dipole matrix squared M_j^2 and CRP also have been calculated. The present calculations were found in remarkable agreement with the available experimental results.
A Case Study on Small Town Big Player – Enjay IT Solutions Ltd., BhiladDr. Amarjeet Singh
Adequately trained Manpower is a problem that affects the IT industry as a whole, but it is particularly acute for Enjay IT Solution. Enjay's location in a semi-urban or rural area makes it even more difficult to find a talented employee with the right skills. As the competition for skilled workers grows, it becomes more difficult to attract and keep those workers who have the requisite training and experience.

Enjay's location in a semi-urban or rural area makes it even more difficult to find a talented employee with the right skills. As the competition for skilled workers grows, it becomes more difficult to attract and keep those workers who have the requisite training and experience.
Effect of Biopesticide from the Stems of Gossypium Arboreum on Pink Bollworm ...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
Pink bollworm and Lepidoptera development quickly in numbers which is a typical animal group that produces around 100 youthful ones inside certain days or weeks. This assault influences the harvests broadly in the tropical and sub-tropical temperature areas. Thus, to keep up with the yield of harvests the vermin ought to be kept away by utilizing pesticides. The unnecessary measure of the purpose of pesticides influences the dirt, land, and as well as human well-being, and contaminates the climate. Thus, an ozone-accommodating biopesticide is extracted from the stems of the Gossypium arboreum. Thus, the extraction of biopesticide from the stems of Gossypium arboreum demonstrated that the quantity of pink bollworm and Lepidoptera is diminished step by step in the wake of showering the arrangement on the impacted region of the plant because of the presence of the gossypol.

An Analytical Study on Ratios Influencing Profitability of Selected Indian Au...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
Every country with a well-developed transportation network has a well-developed economy. The automobile industry is a critical engine of the nation's economic development. The automobile industry has significant backward and forward links with every area of the economy, as well as a strong and progressive multiplier impact. The automotive industry and the auto component industry are both included in the vehicle industry. It includes passenger waggons, light, medium, and heavy commercial vehicles, as well as multi-utility vehicles such as jeeps, three-wheelers, military vehicles, motorcycles, tractors, and auto-components such as engine parts, batteries, drive transmission parts, electrical, suspension and chassis parts, and body and other parts. In the last several years, India's automobile sector has seen incredible growth in sales, production, innovation, and exports. India's car industry has emerged as one of the best in the world, and the auto-ancillary sector is poised to assist the vehicle sector's expansion. Vehicle manufacturers and auto-parts manufacturers account for a significant component of global motorised manufacturing. Vehicle manufacturers from across the world are keeping a close eye on the Indian auto sector in order to assess future demand and establish India as a global manufacturing base. The current research focuses on three automotive behemoths: TATA Motors, MRF, and Mahindra & Mahindra.
A Study on Factors Influencing the Financial Performance Analysis Selected Pr...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
The growth of a country's banking sector has a significant impact on its economic development. The banking sector plays a critical role in determining a country's economic future. A well-planned, structured, efficient, and viable banking system is an essential component of an economy's economic and social infrastructure. In modern society, a strong banking system is required because it meets the financial needs of the modern society. In a country's economy, the banking system plays a crucial role. Because it connects surplus and deficit economic agents, the bank is the most important financial intermediary in the economy. The banking system is regarded as the economy's lifeline. It meets the financial needs of commerce, industry, and agriculture. As a result, the country's development and the banking system are intertwined. They are critical in the mobilisation of savings and the distribution of credit to various sectors of the economy. India's private sector banks play a critical role in the country's economic development. So The financial performance of private sector banks must be evaluated carefully.
An Empirical Analysis of Financial Performance of Selected Oil Exploration an...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
After the United States, China, and Japan, India was the world's fourth biggest consumer of oil and petroleum products. The nation is significantly reliant on crude oil imports, the majority of which come from the Middle East. The Indian oil and gas business is one of the country's six main sectors, with important forward links to the rest of the economy. More than two-thirds of the country's overall primary energy demands are met by the oil and gas industry. The industry has played a key role in placing India on the global map. India is now the world's sixth biggest crude oil user and ninth largest crude oil importer. In addition, the country's portion of the worldwide refining market is growing. India's refining industry is now the world's sixth biggest. With plans for Reliance Petroleum Limited to commission another refinery with a capacity of 29 MTPA next 16 to its 33 MTPA refinery in Jamnagar, Gujarat, this position is projected to be enhanced. As a consequence, the Reliance refinery would be the biggest single-site refinery in the world. Based on secondary data gathered from CMIE, the current research examines the ratios influencing the profitability of selected oil exploration and production businesses in India during a 10-year period.
Since 1991, thanks to economic policy liberalization, the Indian economy has entered an era in which Indian businesses can no longer disregard global markets. Prior to the 1990s, the prices of a variety of commodities, metals, and other assets were carefully regulated. Others, which were not rolled, were primarily dependant on regulated input costs. As a result, there was no uncertainty and, as a result, no price fluctuations. However, in 1991, when the process of deregulation began, the prices of most items were deregulated. It has also resulted in the exchange being partially deregulated, easing trade restrictions, lowering interest rates, and making significant advancements in foreign institutional investors' access to the capital markets, as well as establishing market-based government securities pricing, among other things. Furthermore, portfolio and securities price volatility and instability were influenced by market-determined exchange rates and interest rates. As a result, hedging strategies employing a variety of derivatives were exposed to a variety of risks. The Indian capital market will be examined in this study, with a focus on derivatives.
Theoretical Estimation of CO2 Compression and Transport Costs for an hypothet...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
SEI S.p.a. presented a project to build a 1320 MW coal-fired power plant in Saline Joniche, on the Southern tip of Calabria Region, Italy, in 2008. A gross early evaluation about the possibility to add CCS (CO2 Capture & Storage) was performed too. The project generated widespread opposition among environmental associations, citizens and local institutions in that period, against the coal use to produce energy, as a consequence of its GHG clima-alterating impact. Moreover the CCS (also named Carbon Capture & Storage or more recently CCUS: Carbon Capture-Usage-Storage) technology was at that time still an unknown and “mysterious” solution for the GHG avoiding to the atmosphere. The present study concerns the sizing of the compression and transportation system of the CCS section, included in the project presented at the time by SEI Spa; the sizing of the compression station and the pipeline connecting the plant to the possible Fosca01 offshore injection site previously studied as a possible storage solution, as part of a coarse screening of CO2 storage sites in the Calabria Region. This study takes into account the costs of construction, operation and maintenance (O&M) of both the compression plant and the sound pipeline, considering the gross static storage capacity of the Fosca01 reservoir as a whole as previously evaluated.

Techno-Economic Aspects of Solid Food Wastes into Bio-ManureDr. Amarjeet Singh
Solid waste is health hazard and cause damage to the environment due to improper handling. Solid waste comprises of Industrial Waste (IW), Hazardous Waste (HW), Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), Electronic waste (E-waste), Bio-Medical Waste (BMW) which depend on their supply & characteristics. Food waste or Bio-waste composting and its role in sustainable development is explained in food waste is a growing area of concern with many costs to our community in terms of waste collection, disposal and greenhouse gases. When rotting food ends up in landfill it turns into methane, a greenhouse gas that is particularly damaging to the environment. Composting is biochemical process in which organic materials are biologically degraded, resulting in the production of organic by products and energy in the form of heat. Heat is trapped within the composting mass, leading to the phenomenon of self-heating. This overall process provide us Bio-Manure.
Crypto-Currencies: Can Investors Rely on them as Investment Avenue?Dr. Amarjeet Singh
The purpose of this study is to examine investors’ perceptions about investing in crypto-currencies. We think that investors trust in crypto-currencies is largely driven by crypto-currency comprehension, trust in government, and transaction speed. This is the first study to examine crypto-currencies from the investor’s perspective. Following that, we discover important antecedents of crypto-currency confidence. Second, we look at the government's role in crypto-currencies. The importance of this study is: first, crypto-currencies have the potential to disrupt the current economic system as the debate is all about impact of decentralization of transactions; thus, further research into how it affects investors trust is essential; and second, access to crypto-currencies. Finally, if Fin-Tech companies or banks want to enter the bitcoin industry may not attract huge advertising costs as well as marketing to soothe clients' concerns about investing in various digital currencies The research sheds light on indecisiveness in the context of marketing aspects adopted by demonstrating investors are aware about the crypto.
Awareness of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) among Student of the Catanduanes S...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
The Island Province of Catanduanes is prone to all types of natural hazards that includes torrential and heavy rains, strong winds and surge, flooding and landslide or slope failures as a result of its geographical location and topography. RA 10121 mandates local DRRM bodies to “encourage community, specifically the youth, participation in disaster risk reduction and management activities, such as organizing quick response groups, particularly in identified disaster-prone areas, as well as the inclusion of disaster risk reduction and management programs as part of youth programs and projects. The study aims to determine the awareness to disaster of the student of the Catanduanes State University. The disaster-based questionnaire was prepared and distributed among 636 students selected randomly from different Colleges and Laboratory Schools in the University
The Catanduanes State University students understood some disaster-related concepts and ideas, but uncertain on issues on preparedness, adaptation, and awareness on the risks inflicted by these natural hazards. Low perception on disaster risks are evidently observed among students. The responses of the students could be based on the efficiency and impact of the integration of DRR education in the senior high school curriculum. Specifically, integration of the concepts about the hazards, hazard maps, disaster preparedness, awareness, mitigation, prevention, adaptation, and resiliency in the science curriculum possibly affect the knowledge and understanding of students on DRR. Preparedness drills and other forms of capacity building must be done to improve awareness of the student towards DRRM.
The study further recommends that teachers and instructor must also be capacitated in handling disaster as they are the prime movers in the implementation of the DRRM in education. Preparedness drills and other forms of capacity building must be done to improve awareness of the student towards DRRM. Core subjects in Earth Sciences must be reinforced with geologic hazards. Learning competencies must also be focused on hazard identification and mapping, and coping with different geologic disaster.
The 1857 war was a watershed moment in the history of the Indian subcontinent. The battle has sparked academic debate among historians and sociologists all around the world. Despite the fact that it has been more than 150 years, this battle continues to pique the interest of historians. The war's causes and events that occurred throughout the conflict, persons who backed the British and anti-British fighters, and the results and ramifications, are all aspects of this conflict. In terms of outcomes, many academics believe that the war was a failure for those who started it. It is often assumed that the Indians who battled the British in this conflict were unable to achieve their goals. Many gains accrued to Indians as a result of the conflict, but these achievements are overshadowed by the dispute over the war's failure. This research effort focuses on the war's achievements for India, and the significance of those achievements.
Haryana's Honour Killings: A Social and Legal Point of ViewDr. Amarjeet Singh
Life is unpredictably unpredictable. Nobody knows what will happen in the next minute of their lives. In this circumstance, every human being has the right and desire to conduct their lives according to their own desires. No one should be forced to live a life solely for the benefit and reputation of others. Honour killing is defined as the assassination of a person, whether male or female, who refuses to accept the family's arranged marriage or decides to move her or his marital life according to her or his wishes solely because it jeopardizes the family's honour. The family's supreme authority looks after the family's name but neglects to consider the love and affection shared among family members. I have discussed honour killing in India in my research work. This sort of murder occurs as a result of particular triggers, which are also examined in relation to the role of the law in honour killing. No one can be released free if they break the law, and in this case, it is a felony that violates various regulations designed to safeguard citizens. This crime is similar to many others, but it is distinct enough to be differentiated in the report. When the husband is of low social standing, it lowers the position and caste of the female family, prompting the male family members to murder the girl. But they forget that the girl is their kid and that while rank may be attained, a girl's life can never be replaced, and that caste is less valuable than the girl's life and love spent with them.
Optimization of Digital-Based MSME E-Commerce: Challenges and Opportunities i...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
The impact caused by the Covid-19 Pandemic on Micro and Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) was so severe and fatal
that not a few went out of business. The heavy burden is borne by MSME actors due to social restrictions imposed by the
government, the declining purchasing power of the people, a product that continues to decline until capital runs out. Plus
inadequate knowledge in carrying out marketing strategies and product innovations are the main trigger for the lack of
enthusiasm for MSME actors as well as bankruptcy. MSME digitalization-based e-commerce is an opportunity and the right
solution in dealing with the obstacles caused by the impact of Covid-19, as well as a challenge for MSME actors to design old
ways in new ways through digital business.
Modal Space Controller for Hydraulically Driven Six Degree of Freedom Paralle...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
This paper presents the Modal space decoupled control for a hydraulically driven parallel mechanism has been presented. The approach is based on singular values decomposition to the properties of joint-space inverse mass matrix, and mapping of the control and feedback variables from the joint space to the decoupling modal space. The method transformed highly coupled six-input six-output dynamics into six independent single-input single-output (SISO) 1 DOF hydraulically driven mechanical systems. The novelty in this method is that the signals including control errors, control outputs and pressure feedbacks are transformed into decoupled modal space and also the proportional gains and dynamic pressure feedback are tuned in modal space. The results indicate that the conventional controller can only attenuate the resonance peaks of the lower eigenfrequencies of six rigid modes properly, and the peaking points of other relative higher eigenfrequencies are over damped, The further results show that it is very effective to design and tune the system in modal space and that the bandwidth increased substantially except surge (x) and sway (y) motions, each degree of freedom can be almost tuned independently and their bandwidths can be increased near to the undamped eigenfrequencies.
It is a known fact that a large number of Steel Industry Expansion projects in India have been delayed due to regulatory clearances, environmental issues and problems pertaining to land acquisition. Also, there are challenges in the tendering phase that affect viability of projects thus delaying implementation, construction phase is beset with over-runs and disputes and last but not the least; provider skills are weak all across the value chain. Given the critical role of Steel Sector in ensuring a sustained growth trajectory for India, it is imperative that we identify the core issues affecting completion of infrastructure projects in India and chalk out initiatives that need to be acted upon in short term as well as long term.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

ABSTRACT
This article provides a broad overview of
sustainability in the hospitality and tourist business, as well as
content information on sustainability that could be useful in
hospitality and tourism education. The study focuses on the
following question in particular: What role does
sustainability education play in the hospitality and tourism
industry? Themes in sustainability education are recognised
in the accommodation, meetings and events, and food and
beverage sectors, as well as implementations of sustainability
principles in hospitality and tourism operations and
perspectives on the future direction of sustainability
education in this subject.
Keywords-- Hotels, Tourism, Sustainability, Garni
I. INTRODUCTION
The hotel sector appears to be responding to the
growing importance of sustainability by implementing a
variety of industrial regulations, environmental
programmes, eco-labs, and environmental codes of
conduct. (Mensah, 2006). Hotels have a number of positive
effects in terms of employment, revenue production, and
so on, but they also contribute significantly to
environmental damage. It is impossible to comprehend the
importance of the natural environment for hotels and
tourists without engaging in a detailed discussion of
sustainable development in the context of the hotel sector
(Mensah, 2006).
The environment's main constituents, such as
water, air, flora, and fauna, are under threat as a result of
the hotel industry's over use of these energy resources.
(Bohdanowicz, 2005; Mensah, 2006; Chan, Wang, and Lo,
2009; Bramwell and Alletorp, 2001; Bohdanowicz, 2005;
Mensah, 2006; Chan, Wang, and Lo, 2009; Bramwell and
Alletorp, 2001). According to previous research studies,
sustainable tourism practises in three primary areas,
namely energy management, waste management, and
water conservation, have become increasingly important.
(Bohdanowicz, 2005; Mackie, 1994; Chan,wang and
Lo,2009; Park, 2009; Mensah, 2006; Middleton and
Hawkins, 1993)
These approaches make the greatest impact to the
hotel's brand creation and promotion. (Mensah, 2006;
Forte, 1994). It has been discovered that a visitor drinks
400 litres of water in a single day, whereas natives only
consume 70 litres (Green and Hunter, 1995).
There are number of areas and countries which
have engulfed lot of land on the tourism development an
resulted in the construction of hotels and concrete
buildings, which does not only deplete environment but
also created havoc to the natural resources and has finally
impacted in the form of landslides, floods and excessive
rain. Once the hotel is operational, a large amount of solid
and liquid waste is generated, which eventually finds its
way into neighbouring water bodies or land, posing several
environmental and health risks.
Because so much time has gone since the
environment has been ruined, we must preserve nature's
gifts. However, the trend is now steadily shifting toward
the conservation and protection of natural resources and
the environment. Many national and international hotel
chains have begun to take environmental issues seriously
and have incorporated environmentally sustainable
practises into their daily operations, such as recycling
products whenever possible, reducing waste through
proper waste management techniques, water and energy
conservation, environmental programmes, and educating
and providing hotel staff with environmental information.
According to the source (Deloitte, 2010), the
hospitality industry's environmental stress is undesirable: it
has been discovered that the accommodation sector
contributes 1/5th of the tourism industry's annual green
house gas (GHG) emissions and their reliance on limited
natural resources such as water and energy. In light of this,
the primary goal of this research is to look into the eco-
friendly measures used in hotels.
II. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Employees in hotels who are involved in various
cleaning activities are frequently exposed to hazardous
components. Many of the suggestions below are as simple
as following the recommendations on the label. Employees
are required to be educated on how to protect themselves.

Green-certified products have a number of advantages,
including being less hazardous, accumulating less, being
less hazardous to various organ systems in our bodies,
being non-corrosive, having no effect on the skin or eyes,
and being the least allergenic. There has been an increase
in global attention about environmental issues. Consumers
have begun to recognise that their purchase habits can have
a significant environmental impact. (M. Laroche, 2010) As
a result, every company that wishes to maintain a
competitive advantage in the business world should
exercise social responsibility by producing
environmentally friendly products and services (Wahid et
al., 2011)
The rise of green consumers began in the 1990s,
during the so-called "green decade," when environmental
activism began to spread over the world (Kirkpatrick,
1990). The growing number of individuals eager to buy
ecologically friendly products and eco-friendly cleaning
chemicals is the most convincing evidence of consumer
involvement in terms of green management, which helps to
achieve maximum income at lower costs.
Tourism Industry Initiatives for a More Sustainable
Future
Travel and tourism can take numerous forms,
ranging from a day vacation a few hours away from home
to long-distance international travel. Most travel and
tourism is thought to entail huge numbers of visitors from
affluent countries flying to destinations in emerging
countries. In fact, the domestic tourism market in most
nations is larger than the inbound industry. Inbound
visitors, of course, have a higher social and cultural impact
than domestic tourists. Tourism, whether domestic or
international, entails travelling to a location other than
one's home and taking advantage of the amenities provided
there. As a result, tourists' needs are for travel services to
get to their destinations, as well as services like housing,
water, food, sanitation, and entertainment once they arrive.
As a result, tourism is a highly fragmented and diverse
industry, making industry-wide coordination difficult to
establish. Travel and tourism demand has an impact much
beyond traditional tourism enterprises, extending to
upstream suppliers such as aircraft manufacturers and food
producers, as well as downstream service providers for
travellers such as retail stores.
It's also crucial to note that there are clear
connections between the three elements of tourism -
environmental, economic, and social – as outlined below:
Environmental Dimension
For many individuals, sustainability means
protecting the environment, particularly the natural,
physical environment. However, the environment
encompasses much more than just the natural terrain.
Economic Dimension
In discussions on sustainable tourism, the
economic aspect is frequently overlooked in favour of
environmental concerns. Tourism is an economic
phenomenon because:
It is a large business and a source of foreign cash;
It is the foundation of many transnational firms'
growth; and
It accounts for a considerable amount of annual
disposable income.
Social Dimension
In arguments on sustainable tourism, the social
dimension of tourism has received less attention than the
environmental implications of tourism. This is due to the

fact that tourism's socio-cultural effects are usually gradual
and unspectacular. They're also mostly immaterial and
invisible.
III. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The explorative cum explanatory method has
been adopted in this study and the reality has been
constructed based on the thematic analysis.
Sampling: The sampling of this study will be having
representations of hotels. The sample size of 08 prominent
hotels have been taken based on the saturation of theory.
Research Instrument: The self structured interview
checklist on the basis of environmental sustainability
practices was formulated and same was used for the data
collection.
Research Techniques and Tools: Finally, all the collected
information was analyzed by the use of qualitative analysis
like theme development.
Data: However the secondary data has been collected from
various international as well as the national journals and
also be obtained by reviewing the articles published on the
internet and various business magazines.
IV. ANALYSIS AND DISCUSSION
The main goal of hotels these days is not just to
make a profit, but also to retain customers for future
business. Nowadays, the hotel sector engages guests in
sustainable development by immersing them in various
plantation drives and incorporating various eco-friendly
products and services in the hotels, which visitors
appreciate and enjoy using. As a result, the data was
converted to codes and transcribed as follows:
Waste Management Policy
Trash management policies in the hotel business
must adhere to stringent implementation that distinguishes
organic garbage from non-organic waste, as well as
garbage sorting and the establishment of collection stations
for glass, aluminium, paper, and organic waste. Only in
one case was it discovered that a waste management
strategy had been strictly applied. In the rest of the
situations, they either have a sewage treatment plant, but it
is not in operation on a regular basis.
Segregation of the Garbage
Garbage has almost always been collected by the
municipal department. In addition, just a few hotels
separate rubbish into dry and moist wastes.
Re Use of Water
Reusing wastewater has been shown to lower the
requirement for fresh water by 50%, according to
secondary study (Green hotelier, 2006). It has been
discovered that reusing water in restrooms is not the best
method because it causes allergies and odours in a large
number of guests, as well as a slew of other health and
hygiene difficulties. The following sustainable methods for
future water use should be adopted for improved water
control and usage.
Plantation of Trees
Almost all industries should implement these
environmental measures. However, it has been discovered
that only a small percentage of the time, this procedure is
used to minimise pollutants and improve the hotel's
appearance.
Energy Saving Practices
It has been discovered that hotels use a lot of
energy in every aspect of their operations; this minimises
the hotel's electricity expenses and gives economic benefit
to the hotel. The following are the finest energy-saving
strategies used by the selected hotels:
The hotels should replace the florescent lamps
with LED lamps, as it consumes less energy and
is environment friendly
There must be installation of solar panels on the
roofs of buildings in order to harness the sunlight
and get maximum benefit out of it. Because it has
been found that solar energy is eco friendly and
environment supportive.
The hotels should use Ecofriendly chemicals
which causes less harm to both the individual as
well as the environment.
The hotels should re-use products like bed sheets
used for one day can be used for another day,
used soaps can be re-used after processing instead
of wasting them or throwing them in garbage.
In the same way that hotels replace old
shampoo/conditioner bottles for each new visitor, some
hotels are now only refilling empty/half-filled bottles. For
internal note and internal departmental noting, hotels
should use old used paper.
V. CONCLUSION
Following a thorough examination of the data, it
was discovered that some environmentally sustainable
techniques are still in use at the hotels, but that their
execution is irregular. There are several environmentally
sustainable techniques that just a few hotels follow.
Although hotel managers are familiar with the word
"sustainable," these practises have not been fully adopted
or implemented. As a result, hoteliers must implement
these practises and raise awareness among all hotel
stakeholders, particularly guests who are the ultimate users
of these services and facilities. In the conversation about
the environment, visitor awareness and participation are
critical. The main goal of this awareness and preparedness
is to tap into the potential of environmental services and
amenities in order to preserve some of the clean

environment for future generations. As previously stated,
the hotel industry is one of the industries that consumes a
lot of energy, uses a lot of water, and generates tonnes of
garbage and waste water on a daily basis.
There are also other departments that require
attention, such as housekeeping, food and production,
front-office, and others, in order to maintain and protect
resources. Hoteliers should clean the floors using grey
water and flush the toilets with the last rinse of water left
over after washing the linen. Other techniques that hotels
might employ include storing rainwater and using it to
water plants in their own kitchen gardens. Hoteliers should
urge their employees to clean their establishments with
organic products and environmentally friendly detergents
and insecticides.
Managers have a significant role to play in
environmental conservation and preservation. So, the first
thing a hotel should do is provide in-house training to their
employees, followed by in-house training for their visitors,
so that guests may easily cooperate with the hotel's
environmentally sustainable policies.
Hotels could provide reward programmes for visitors and
employees who fully adhere to environmentally
sustainable procedures. The following are some best
practises that hoteliers can simply incorporate into their
daily operations:
1. Managers should only provide water to guests
who specifically request it.
2. Glass water bottles should be used instead of
plastic water bottles.
3. Instead of replacing empty shampoo bottles and
other products with new ones, refill them.
4. Offer discounts in their next or existing bookings
to encourage their guests to participate in
environmental programmes.
5. In order to preserve water, the bath tub in hotel
rooms should be removed.
