Happy Zero Waste Week, 1-7 June!

Zero Waste Week is observed every year between 1 and 7 June with the aim of promoting the efficient use of natural resources, preventing waste generation, and spreading a culture of recycling and reuse; it contributes to raising awareness across all segments of society for a sustainable future.

As TÜROB, since our founding we have regarded a sustainable environmental approach as one of our core areas of work. In line with the goal of protecting natural resources, reducing environmental impacts, and leaving a more livable world for future generations, we continue to support all efforts undertaken in this direction and to contribute to spreading this awareness within our sector.

The sustainable development of tourism is possible through protecting the environment, using resources efficiently, and properly implementing waste management. With the awareness that protecting the natural and cultural resources that constitute the tourism sector's most valuable assets is our shared responsibility, we are resolutely continuing our work on recycling, reuse, energy efficiency, water conservation, and zero waste practices.

Reducing waste, reassessing resources through a circular economy approach, and supporting environmental sustainability require the active participation not only of institutions but also of individuals. For a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable future, it is of great importance that each of us fulfils the responsibilities that fall to us.

With these sentiments and thoughts, we hope that Zero Waste Week, 1-7 June, will contribute to strengthening environmental awareness, and we wish that all efforts made for a sustainable future will continue to increase.

Respectfully,
TÜROB Türkiye Otelciler Birliği
