Understanding Sustainability Reporting
On today’s episode I’m joined by Polly Buckland the Owner Founder of The Typeface Group, a BCorp Communications Agency and Design studio based in Hampshire.
The climate emergency is a subject that is gaining traction. The changes to our climate are palpable, and finding ways to reduce our carbon footprint and impact on the planet is front and centre for many people that visit attractions. People are making mindful decisions about where to spend their time and money, to have as little impact as possible – but at the same time people still want to enjoy experiences. There are many attractions that understand this and are working to reduce their impact, and communicate this clearly to potential guests. So I’m going to be talking to Polly about how you can measure, and communicate the sustainability of your attraction. -
