At THB hotels, we are committed to responsible and sustainable tourism. Measuring, reducing and offsetting our carbon footprint is a key priority within our environmental strategy.
We recently obtained Carbon Footprint certificates for 2023, which have been officially recorded at the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge in Spain. These certificates show the CO2 emissions produced by our hotels over the past year, a figure that we are constantly working to reduce, and they also enable us to set new goals as we work further towards becoming carbon neutral in the future.
Reinvesting in sustainability: offsetting our carbon footprint
For two years now, at THB hotels we have been investing the income we make from recycling cooking oil into sustainable projects. This initiative has enabled us to raise 11,000 euros, which will go towards offsetting the carbon footprint of our hotels.
Our emissions are offset through the A Granda – A Fonsagrada project, a reforestation program in Galicia that is supported by the Ministry of the Environment in Spain. This project enables us to actively contribute towards the environment by planting trees, thus helping to mitigate the impact of our CO2 emissions.
One more step towards a greener future
At THB hotels we will continue striving to reduce the emissions generated from all of our hotels and to work towards eventual carbon neutrality. We are also evaluating all the initiatives and projects that enable us to continue contributing towards a greener planet.
With each step we take, we reaffirm our commitment to build a more sustainable future for the next generations, working to achieve a tourism model that both respects and protects the environment.
