Launch of the SUNx Malta Climate Friendly Travel Registry for 2050 Climate Neutral & Sustainability Ambitions Friday 25th September 10am EST - NEw York Climate Week


This Friday, 25th September, at 10am EST, we will launch our Climate Friendly Travel Registry for 2050 Climate Neutral & Sustainability Ambitions in partnership with the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) and Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association (TOTA). It is a virtual event delivered during Climate Week NYC and in the side-lines of UN General Assembly, and we would like to invite you to join us.


The idea of a Climate Neutral 2050 Ambitions Registry was built into the Paris 2015 Agreement, as a way for Parties to transparently declare and progressively increase their Carbon reduction ambitions through 2050, so as to secure global temperature stabilized at tolerable levels for human survival.

As a transformation catalyst this Registry will be open to all Travel & Tourism companies and communities, whether they have created a 2050 Carbon Neutral Ambition yet. It will cover transport, hospitality, travel services and infrastructure providers - from the smallest to the largest, anywhere in the world. It will also be a conduit to the mainstream UN Climate Action Portal.

Speakers at the event include Hon. Julia Farrugia Portelli, Minister for Tourism and Consumer Protection, Malta, and launch partners Gloria Guevara, President & CEO, World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), and Glenn Mandziuk, President & CEO, Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association (TOTA).

T he Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal set of seventeen goals and 169 targets, with accompanying indicators, which were agreed by UN member states to frame their policy agendas for the fifteen-year period from 2015 to 2030. Written by three authors who have been engaged in the development of the SDGs from the beginning, this book offers an insider view of the process and a unique entry into what will be seen as one of the most significant negotiations and global policy agendas of the twenty-first century.  The book reviews how the SDGs were developed, what happened in key meetings and how this transformational agenda, which took more than three years to negotiate, came together in September 2015.
