    The Green Key is an environmental mark that has already been voluntarily obtained by more than 3,700 different tourist facilities in 60 countries. The Green Key certificate is the leading standard of excellence in the field of environmental responsibility and sustainable operation in the tourism industry. This prestigious environmental mark signifies the commitment of companies to comply with the strict criteria set by the International Foundation for Environmental Education FEE in certified establishments. The Green Key environmental sign guarantees all guests that by choosing a certified tourist establishment, they directly contribute to the protection of the environment. The plants maintain high environmental standards through strict documentation and frequent inspections. The Green Key certificate can be obtained by hotels and hostels, smaller accommodation establishments, camps and holiday parks, congress centers, restaurants and tourist attractions. (ZELENI KLJUC, 2022).

    PROMOTING THE DRINKING OF DRINKING WATER FROM THE TAP

     

    Slovenia is one of those countries where every resident has the right to drinking water and at the same time it is also one of those countries that has drinking water available. Water sources are regularly monitored, which enables safe drinking of tap water. Therefore, in the light of sustainable development, responsible behavior and conservation of natural resources, you use tap water in your work and abandon the use of pre-packaged water in bottles. Offer drinking water from the tap as a regular form of offer to guests and tourists, when organizing events, business meetings and, of course, also among employees within your organization (Slovenia info, 2022).
