Additionally, the resort educates guests about water conservation practices, encouraging collectively responsible tourism.
Addressing Waste Reduction
Waste management involves the effective handling of solid waste, including recycling, composting and disposal. Hospitality facilities can minimize environmental impact and lower the cost of overhead.
An Optimized Casino
