A12: Fully commit to sustainable practices - not just in the office, but at home. Do your employees walk and bike to work? Do you put time in with your local community? Do you choose renewable? Sustainability shouldn't just be a good travel memory but a new way of life. #TWChats

replying to @TWtravelnews @TWtravelnews A10 #TWchats I’m an extreme extrovert so NYC’s lockdown is killing me. Post pandemic, I still would love an extrovert hotel but with outdoor gatherings - incl bars/cafes/coffee shops - with proper social distancing.

A12 The lens through which @afarmedia sees the world is Travel as a Force for Good: more inclusive, more sustainable, more about leaving the world in a better place than we’ve found it. We can all help plan for a post-COVID19 future in a more conscious way. #TWchats

A12: (1/2) Whatever it is, it can’t be just image bullshit, it has to be real, and that will a) cost them money, which they don’t like spending, and b) invariably not be glamorous or perhaps even noticed. #TWchats

A12: Why, why, why is the temperature always set (and reset) at 65 degrees every time I walk into my room? #TWChats
Our happy place? #Barbados, #QuintanaRoo, @CalaLuna_Hotel, @PalladiumHG, @vivoresorts; we're missing them a little extra today. ❤️ #TWChats https://t.co/D3VAYl0bqq
A12: Invest in solar power, ditch the plastic, grow your own food, to name a few. - @jacquigiff #TWchats https://t.co/dVGaymDRCh
a11: my happy place would have to be @turismo_sma at this point. Lots of space, food, wine and everything is walking distance for some needed exercise #TWchats #travelwENroute
I would love it if every urban hotel gave you a guide to city public transportation when you check in. I've taken the train in Vienna, the bus in Budapest, and even the monorail in Las Vegas -- depending on my story, no need to rent a car. #TWChats https://t.co/mAenGwNA5u

A12: Travel companies have to remember that these kinds of practices won't amount to much unless they take into account communities of people in the places where those practices happen. Education and employment are essential to any meaningful sustainability efforts. #TWchats https://t.co/xc2YJAoz3k

replying to @CNTraveler @CNTraveler Airbnb used to be it--we've stayed in them in places like Brussels, Moscow, the Faroe Islands, Tuscany, Provence (ok getting hungry now), Reykjavík...now I'm not sure if these are all that safe anymore. Boutique hotels are always gorgeous + the personal touches are fab. #TWchats
replying to @TravelLeisure You can read more on this with Travel + Leisure's Global Vision Awards, which honor companies, individuals, destinations, and organizations taking strides to develop more sustainable and responsible travel products, practices, and experiences. #TWChats https://t.co/Y8MSY77eJJ
A12 The right kind of travel means many things, but is based on some core ideas: transformative travel; traveling more deeply to experience a place like a local; pursuing destinations that aren’t overcrowded; and going off the beaten path in on-the-beaten-path places. #TWchats
replying to @CNTraveler @CNTraveler Promote and work with businesses who walk the talk; being more selective about who they engage with #TWchats
replying to @CNTraveler @CNTraveler A11. For my it’s as simple as outside. Ideally walking somewhere beautiful in sight of exciting wildlife. If was to be more specific, however, it would be the Conservatory and Botanical Gardens of Geneva. #TWChats

A12. Focus on ensuring travel truly benefits local economies. Partner with small operators, local restaurants, and independent guides; make a more long-lasting, positive economic impact in the communities travelers visit. #TWchats
