Environmental pollution and the dynamic development of industry, including the hotel and catering industry, adversely affect nature. Tourism organizers should pay more attention to developing alternative forms of tourism, including ecotourism, rural tourism and agritourism. Tourism, just like other forms of human activity, affects the natural environment.
The natural environment and the anthropogenic environment are the basis for the development of tourism. The natural environment is one of the main recipients of the negative impact caused by the construction and maintenance of hotel and catering facilities.
The surroundings in which tourism is cultivated largely determine the quality and attractiveness of a given area. Due to its global nature, tourism has a great chance to play a large role in the process of introducing pro-ecological policy in the economy and services, and in shaping the ecological awareness of the society. In hotels, environmental education is being promoted more and more often, concerning both hotel employees and guests.
Hotels, restaurants and other tourist facilities are expected to do more than just provide high-standard services, but also meeting many criteria related to their impact on the natural environment.
The introduction of ecological solutions in hotel establishments is becoming more and more popular with the community.
Large hotel brands are becoming more and more interested in campaigns, whose main aim is to reduce harmful activities of hotels and spread the concept of responsibility for the surrounding environment. Through social responsibility, hotels can improve their rank and thus increase their sales profits.
