Jon Proctor, VISIT Vice Chairman & Director
of the Green Tourism Business Scheme said:
“ 2005 is a landmark
year in the war against Climate Change. There is no doubt
man is damaging the
environment in a fundamental way. There is also no
doubt that the VISIT organisation is the leading organisation
in the development of sustainable tourism in practice,
And there is also no doubt that tourism is the key
industry in the road to a sustainable lifestyle.”
“ Grant us the grace to accept those things we
cannot change, grant us the courage to change the things
we can and grant us the wisdom to know the difference” – Your
VISIT can make the difference.
