carboNZero certification was issued within just three months of the opening of Emirates' new AUD125 million resort.
Tony Williams, Senior Vice President, Resorts & Projects, Emirates Hotels & Resorts, said: “Emirates has built its success upon operating at the highest level of credibility and integrity. When seeking carbon neutral status, naturally these same standards applied, which is why we chose a solution that was science-based, third party verified and aligned with both international best practice and the new Australian legislation.
“We describe Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa as a luxury conservation-based tourist destination and it is essential that we make every possible effort to reflect this. This certification is proof of our commitment to guests, to the environment and to Australia.”
carboNZero certification indicates that the greenhouse gas emissions associated with Wolgan Valley’s operations have been independently measured and verified in accordance with international standards. It also recognises the resort’s commitment to continuously managing and reducing its emissions, and neutralising unavoidable emissions through the purchase of a small quantity of verified carbon credits.
