WORLD TOURISM DAY
Many people around celebrate the United Nations’ (UN) World Tourism Day, which is on September 27 each year. The day aims to foster awareness among the international community of the importance of tourism and its social, cultural, political and economic values.World Tourism Day (WTD) 2012 is being held under the theme Tourism & Sustainable Energy: Powering Sustainable Development. Official celebrations will take place in Maspalomas, Spain (September 27).
This year’s theme aims to highlight tourism’s role in a brighter energy future; a future in which the world’s entire population has access to modern, efficient and affordable energy services.Tourism today is at the forefront of some of the world’s most ambitious and innovative clean energy solutions: the aviation industry is implementing cutting-edge technologies to make aircraft lighter than ever before; commercial flights are beginning to use biofuels in their fuel mix; key card systems and energy saving light bulbs are increasingly being implemented in hotel rooms worldwide; and tour operators are asking for energy efficiency throughout their supply chains.

ОтветитьУдалитьThanks to this site I've become aware of a number of holidays. All of them are interesting.
ОтветитьУдалитьSpeaking about Tourism Day I would suggest going on a hike with your friends.We must spend our time in a useful way.
Tourism is very important to us. We pay less attention to it than we have to. These holidays give us a chance to understand it. I hope that this will help to change people's attitude to tourism.
