Risk, Resilience and Recovery: What COVID-19 Can Teach the Travel Industry About Climate Change
Climate change may be perceived as more a distant threat than pandemic but is likely an even bigger long term problem. In this conversation, we’ll look at climate risk, the concept of resiliency, and learn how to rebuild from the current crisis in a more sustainable way – one that will mitigate future risks, contribute to global environmental goals, and ultimately ensure business continuity.
Speakers:
Muireann Gibbons Neff, Regional Lead North America at South Pole
Conor Ryan, Lindblad Expeditions, Lindblad Expeditions
Sara Bogdan, Sustainability and ESG at JetBlue Airways
