WLO becomes a signatory of the Glasgow Declaration on Climate Action in Tourism

mireia 24 January, 2022

World Leisure Organization (WLO) is proud to become a signatory of the Glasgow Declaration on Climate Action in Tourism. The Glasgow Declaration on Climate Action in Tourism unites travel and tourism behind a common set of pathways for climate action, aligning the sector with global commitments and catalyzing collaborative solutions to the many challenges facing businesses and destinations globally. The Glasgow Declaration encourages the acceleration of climate action in tourism by securing commitments to reduce emissions in tourism by at least 50% over the next decade and achieve Net Zero as soon as possible before 2050. The Declaration was officially launched at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) in November 2021.

As a signatory of the Glasgow Declaration, we commit to deliver plans aligned with the pathways to cut tourism emissions in half over the next decade and reach Net Zero emissions as soon as possible before 2050.

WLO commits to:

  • Support the global commitment to halve emissions by 2030 and reach Net Zero as soon as possible before 2050.
  • Deliver a climate action plan within 12 months from becoming a signatory and begin implementing it.
  • Align plans with the five pathways of the Declaration to accelerate and coordinate climate action in tourism.
  • Report publicly on an annual basis on progress against interim and long-term targets, as well as on actions being taken.
  • Work in a collaborative spirit, sharing good practices and solutions, and disseminating information to encourage additional organizations to become signatories and supporting one another to reach targets as quickly as possible.
