Building a Sustainable and Responsible Tourism Industry

Sustainability is an underlying principle of the Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association (TOTA). TOTA is committed to facilitate business and community growth that is environmentally, culturally, and economically sustainable in alignment with the UN 17 SDG’s. As a signatory of the Glasgow Declaration, TOTA supports halving emissions over the next decade and reaching Net Zero emissions before 2050. TOTA is motivated to take action from both directly experiencing the impacts of climate change and understanding the co-benefits of social, economic and environmental activities designed to address climate change. TOTA will lead by example by continuously sharing knowledge, raising awareness and driving collaborative action on sustainability in our region.
