European Parliament wants safe and eco-friendly tourism after Covid
The Members of the European Parliament want the EU executive bodies to establish a new strategy to make travel and tourism cleaner, safer, and more eco-friendly in order to help the sector’s recovery after the pandemic. Previously, in a meeting held on February 25th, their Transport and Tourism Committee voted the draft resolution regarding the EU strategy for sustainable tourism, with 47 votes in favour and only two against, urging the EU Member States to include the sector in their recovery plans.
In a press release, the European Parliament Members assert that the pandemic has changed people’s preferences and has brought them closer to nature. Therefore, the Parliament calls for a roadmap that would allow an eco-friendlier way of tourism and which would help to reduce the environmental footprint.
