  • What is sustainable and responsible tourism?

    The World Tourism Organisation defines sustainable tourism as «a tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities».

    The preservation of natural, cultural and social resources ensures the sustainability of tourism in a region. Responsible tourists seek to minimise their potential negative impacts and intend to maximise their positive effects at all levels.

  • What is sustainable development?

    Sustainable development is defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Sustainable development seeks to balance long-term economic efficiency, environmental protection and social justice.

  • Why does Genève Aéroport promote responsible tourism?

    Genève Aéroport promotes responsible tourism because the future of tourism is dependent on the preservation of the natural, cultural and social resources of the host territory. Raising passengers’ awareness of their socio-environmental impacts and good practices, as key clients and drivers of change, is an integral part of Genève Aéroport’s sustainable development strategy.

  • What can I do to travel more responsibly?

    To travel more responsibly, simple choices and actions before, during and after your getaways can make your holiday more responsible, reducing your footprint on the environment, biodiversity and the people of the host country.

    For more information, visit our Responsible Tourism page.

  • What is carbon offsetting?

    Carbon offsetting is the neutralisation of CO2 emissions by financing carbon sequestration projects or projects reducing other sources of greenhouse gas emissions throughout the world.

    For more information, visit our page dedicated to CO2 offsetting

  • Is the offsetting of my CO2 emissions the solution to climate change?

    It is obviously better to avoid creating new CO2 emissions. However, the most important action for the climate is to reduce emissions globally. Using this logic, offsetting makes it possible to neutralise the emissions that cannot be avoided.

  • Why is it wrong to buy souvenirs made from protected animals or wild plants?

    The trade in endangered species souvenirs puts a lot of pressure on biodiversity. Everyone can act at their level by avoiding any purchases that put them at risk. Moreover, in addition to being seized at the customs, a fine and criminal prosecution can be enforced.

    Find more information on our Responsible Tourism page.

  • How to protect children from exploitation during my travels?

    To protect children from exploitation during your travels, you can find tips on the ChildSafe Movement Agents website.
