Episode 165: Tackling Overtourism – A Guide to Sustainable Travel Welcome back to The Family Vacationer. I'm your host, Rob, and today we're diving deep into a pressing issue in the travel world: overtourism. This year has seen tourism take on new challenges, and overtourism has emerged as a major concern. But what does overtourism mean, and how can we tackle it? In this episode, we'll explore the impact of too many tourists on our favorite destinations and discuss how we can make a positive difference through sustainable travel practices. What is Overtourism? Overtourism happens when a destination experiences so many visitors that it starts to suffer. This usually results in environmental damage, cultural erosion, and a diminished experience for both tourists and locals. Think of it as loving a place to death: the very beauty that draws people in becomes compromised by the sheer volume of visitors. Examples Around the World Venice, Italy: This city's iconic canals and historic buildings are being damaged by the overwhelming number of tourists. The influx has strained the city's infrastructure and endangered its preservation. Barcelona, Spain:*Famous landmarks like La Sagrada Família and Park Güell face massive crowds, which affect the quality of life for residents and the visitor experience. Hawaii and New York City: These popular spots are grappling with the effects of excessive tourism, from the strain on natural landscapes in Hawaii to overcrowded attractions in New York. What Can Families Do? Embracing Sustainable Tourism Sustainable tourism is key to reducing the negative impacts of travel while maximizing benefits to local communities and environments. Here's how you can get involved: 1. Conserve Resource 2. Support Local Economies 3. Be Culturally Sensitive 4. Reduce Waste 5. Minimize Environmental Impact Practical Tips for Families 1. Plan Ahead 2. Travel Off-Peak 3.Educate Your Family 4. Be Mindful 5. Leave No Trace Alternative Destinations Explore these less crowded but equally enchanting destinations: - Instead of Paris... - Instead of Santorini... - Instead of Tokyo... - Instead of Venice... Closing Thoughts As travelers, we play a crucial role in shaping the future of the destinations we visit. By embracing sustainable tourism and considering alternative destinations, we can help preserve the beauty and integrity of these places for future generations. Remember, it's not just about where we go but how we travel that makes a difference. We're not here to tell you how to think or what to do. The hope is just to raise awareness of these very real issues for your consideration. That's a wrap for today's episode of The Family Vacationer. I hope this discussion on overtourism has given you valuable insights and practical tips. If you have questions or tips of your own, feel free to reach out to us. rob@thefamilyvacationer.live Thanks for joining me today, and as always, keep your passports and your hearts open. Safe travels, everyone!

Did you know that when you reduce waste, you save money? It's true. It may seem difficult to be more sustainable, reducing your carbon footprint, but we are going to share with you some very simple ways to not only reduce but increase the money that is in your wallet. That speaks everyone's language, right?! The full show notes, with links, resources we mention, and podcast sponsors can be found HERE

Over one-third of the world's food is lost or wasted, undermining efforts to end hunger and malnutrition while contributing 8 to 10 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. In low- and middle-income countries, over 40 percent of food loss occurs before a crop even makes it to market, whether due to inadequate storage, pests or microbes, spoilage, spillage in transport or otherwise. Eliminating food loss and waste (FLW) would provide enough food to feed two billion people, as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Addressing FLW is critical to global food security, nutrition and climate change mitigation, with digital technology and the reduction of household food waste playing an important role in these efforts. In order to raise awareness, exchange information and share success stories, USAID's Food Loss and Waste Community of Practice created the USAID Kitchen Sink Food Loss and Waste Podcast. Our goal is to share monthly, bite-sized episodes that highlight the approaches USAID and the U.S. government are taking to address FLW. We hope these episodes provide a valuable resource for those interested in why we should care about FLW and how we can reduce it. Our latest episode is with Rishi Banerjee, Senior Director of SmartLabel at the Consumer Brands Association. Rishi shares the type of information that SmartLabel can provide to increase transparency and how this can benefit consumers. Together, we discuss the role SmartLabel might play in reducing FLW, including information on food safety and recycling. We conclude by considering the future opportunities for digital technologies in the FLW and food safety space.You can subscribe to receive the latest episodes of USAID's Kitchen Sink and listen to our episodes on the platform of your choice: Apple, Spotify, and more! Video recordings of the episodes are available on YouTube. Check in every month for new episodes as global experts discuss a range of issues about FLW and methane emissions - from the critical role of youth to the staggering economic costs - and learn about specific ways that USAID is tackling FLW around the world. If you have an idea for an episode topic you'd like to see featured or if you would like to participate in an episode of USAID's Kitchen Sink, please reach out to Nika Larian (nlarian@usaid.gov).There's no time to waste!

“You as a consumer, I as a consumer have enormous power to make the transformation that we want to see.  But one of the transformations as a consumer is selecting the right products because the competitor who is not doing the right packaging or the right product is going to see that they're losing clients to the competitors that are doing more sustainable product, produce and materials, so he's gonna change. He's only going to change because us as consumers are driving the change by purchasing the right or the best materials available for us.”  - Denise Braun Denise Braun found her calling for sustainability work after witnessing waste flooding during a storm as a child in Brazil. She was further inspired after reading a book on applying sustainability in businesses while working in human resources. This led her to pursue a career in waste management. Denise founded All About Waste 8 years ago after having a child, encouraged by her husband to start her own business focused solely on zero waste solutions. The firm now provides zero waste certifications and consulting globally to reduce building waste. She leads by example with zero waste practices like composting and using refillable products. She encourages others gently and hosts zero waste children's birthday parties. She also recommends shopping at farmers markets when possible or using services like Imperfect Produce. She also suggests stores like Sprouts for bulk options. In Europe, she noticed less waste from smaller grocery formats and buying daily needs. Her goal is advising political leaders on waste policy.

For many Australians, Christmas is about spending time with family and friends. And it's all about giving of presents. But there's increasing concern that the reason for the season is being missed, and too many presents - as well as food and other Christmas items - are going to waste.

For many of us, we try to make choices with the environment in mind. We often ask ourselves how we can be more sustainable with our food, our clothes, and our energy. But what about with our pets? Are there ways that we as Pet Parents can think about sustainability and help the environment in a positive way? On this episode, Rachel Fall, Capabilities & Sustainability Brand Manager at Blue Buffalo Co, Nicole Kandoth, Pet Packaging Lead, Blue Buffalo, and Patrick Keenan, R&D Principal Engineer, Blue Buffalo, help us understand how the pet industry is thinking about this and provide tips on the ways Pet Parents can act and think more sustainably. Tune in to learn:Understanding the basics of pet food packaging (3:00)Breaking down the language of sustainability (10:15)Behind the scenes of designing innovative packaging (22:15)Where can Pet Parents find reusable options?

Reducing waste makes your resources go further

Today's episode is proof that when an idea sounds too good to be true, it doesn't mean that it's not possible, it just means that it's a great business idea. Martin leveraged unique industry insight to build a business that captures the enormous amount of waste that so many industries blast out without giving it a second thought. He patented energy-storing blocks that can store 1.2MWh of thermal energy at a temperature level of up to 1,300 °C. This means that we can store the heat byproducts of tons of heavy industries, which can translate into cost savings, decarbonizing entire industries, and generally making our whole society much more efficient. He had a brilliant idea, he executed on that idea, and he saw near immediate success bringing his brilliance into the world. I love crazy, out of the box solutions like this, and I know you will too. ➡️ https://kraftblock.com/en/ ➡️ Highlights: https://rosspalmer.com/martin-schichtel ➡️ Follow me on Instagram: @therosspalmer ➡️ Subscribe on YouTube: @therosspalmer

We've been told to recycle, repurpose, and reuse to reduce waste. But do our efforts make any difference? Is there a way to reduce the amount we generate, in the first place? And why does it matter?   Jill Winger is the author of “Old Fashioned on Purpose” and the host of the podcast by the same name. Today, she offers insights about how to reduce our waste. She gives both the why and the how. She discusses the problem waste creates in our own homes and for the planet. She notes, for example, that 40% of the oceans are now covered in plastic! She also offers ideas for reducing the waste we produce in our homes—by avoiding buying cheap products that end up more quickly in landfills, for example.   For more resources, visit Jill's website: theprairiehomestead.com Register for the Wise Traditions conference Check out our sponsors: Pluck and Optimal Carnivore

WENDY GROUNDS:  Hello, and welcome to Manage This, the podcast by project managers for project managers.  Thank you for joining us today.  My name is Wendy Grounds, and with me in the studio is Bill Yates.  We like to bring you stories about projects.  And today we are bringing you a story about Katherine Shayne.  She worked in environmental sustainability focused on global materials management and marine plastic litter for the Jambeck Research Group and UGA New Materials Institute.  Kat has a passion for bridging science and technology with business and mitigation strategies in communities especially in terms of waste management and new materials. BILL YATES:  Wendy, have you ever been holding something in your hand, or you're about to throw it in the trash, and you're like, wait a minute, maybe I could recycle this. WENDY GROUNDS:  Yes, yes, many a time. BILL YATES:  So this is the question.  This is the problem that Kat and her team have been addressing.  At the University of Georgia Kat is the co-founder and president of Can I Recycle This.  It's a startup company which is working on a solution to help people, people like me and you, governments, and businesses figure out what products or packaging are locally recyclable and how to get them to where they need to go. WENDY GROUNDS:  Hi, Kat.  It's great to have you on the podcast.  Thank you for joining us today. KAT SHAYNE:  Thanks for having me.  I'm really excited to be here. Meet Kat WENDY GROUNDS:  I want to hear a little bit about your background before we start.  You have a master's degree in environmental engineering from the University of Georgia. BILL YATES:  Go Dawgs. WENDY GROUNDS:  Yeah. KAT SHAYNE:  Go Dawgs. WENDY GROUNDS:  What sparked your interest in environmental sustainability?  How did it all begin? KAT SHAYNE:  Actually, I did not plan on becoming an engineer at all.  I was an English major when I started at UGA.  And I was going pre-law because I'd already looked up one of the highest-passing degrees for the LSAT was English.  So I started off in English.  I was really passionate about writing.  And I had a class that was an elective science class.  It was with Dr. Knox.  He's a climatologist at UGA.  And he had me in his class, and he asked me to come in for office hours one day.  He was like, what is your major?  And I told him I wanted to do pre-law. I really had a passion for policy and law. And he says, “Well, you really have a knack for this,” because it was a climate course.  He said, you know, “Have you explored engineering, applied sciences?”  I said, “No, I didn't even know UGA had engineering.”    So I went and checked it out, and at the same time I was trying to find a little bit more purpose in my degree, you know, what kind of law did I want to go into if I was going to do that. Because my significant other at the time had been diagnosed with cancer.  And he was 20, and he had colon cancer.

In This Episode:  Many CEOs believe that a slowdown (or decline) in profits is simply because of a lack of sales, not enough hard work, or outside economic forces. But the truth is, many profit plateaus can be traced back to one thing: waste.  Time wasted is also money wasted. But figuring out where that bloat is, and developing an action plan for reducing it, can feel overwhelming or confusing to many business owners. Luckily, there are a few simple strategies (and some very simple math) CEOs can use to reduce their organizational waste — and turn bigger profits. Tune into the full episode for advice on how to evaluate waste in your organization, how to measure your “cycle time” and “process time,” and a deep dive into the math you need as a CEO to measure your ROI and potential for more profit. Here's a Glimpse of What You'll Learn:  When a CEO should think about making process improvements The rule of thumb for evaluating the ROI on decisions you make as a CEO How to calculate the cost of delaying major decisions within an organization The difference between a company's “process time” and “cycle time” — and how to measure waste between the two What CEOs can learn about value (and how to make money) from hospitals The power of “lean thinking” and how it can help CEOs 3x (or more) their ROI  Resources Mentioned in This Episode: 40 Strategy Contact 40 Strategy Carl J. Cox on LinkedIn If you're a business owner, can you relate to any of the following?  Tasks have been sitting at your employees' desks for weeks with no progress Your team is still using spreadsheets for everything You're experiencing hang-ups with closing your accounting books after period end Profits are plateauing or declining year-over-year If so… well, you're not alone. And secondly — it does NOT have to be this way.  When you experience these symptoms (especially for longer than 3 months in a row)...  It could be time for some significant process improvements within your organization.  But how do you know which processes to focus on? How do you measure what's working — and what's keeping your profits from growing?  I talk about all that and more on this week's episode of the Measure Success Podcast. Tune in for more tips on how to reduce waste in your organization, how to measure your “cycle time” and “process time,” and a deep dive into the math you need as a CEO to measure your ROI and potential for more profit.
