Cayman Islands Department of Tourism, and the Department of Environment, have joined forces to highlight the different ways our tourism industry strives to be green and will showcase those efforts at the annual Living Green Fair on Friday, 20 April. 
"It is hoped, that the valuable information provided at the fair, will further educate the public sector on the importance of implementing a variety of eco-friendly practices in the workplace and at home," said Acting Director Shomari Scott. 
"we continually encourage the implementation of environmental best practices throughout our tourism industry and our proud of the many successes." she added. 
"We are extraordinarily proud to have so many of our tourism partners mirror the departments' and government's commitment to sustainable tourism," said Cayman Islands Premier McKeeva Bush. Green Globe Certification is an internationally recognized designation in the travel, tourism and hospitality industry, that demonstrates a commitment to the environment which we highly support. 
There are five accommodations that have implemented the best practices, outlined by CEPTS, earning the distinction of being Green Globe Certified, with an additional five establishments in the process of finalizing its requirements.
