Carissa Simeone: Thesis

Often in hotels, the use of linen has always been a large impact on the costs that entails a guest room. To a guest, the room in which they are renting serves as a temporary home for the duration of their stay. It is obvious that the linen is a vital aspect to a hotel room, often being an issue. Several options are ideal regarding linen procedures in order to exceed the highest profits and reducing the costs of linen. A way to implement such procedures could consist of obtaining a program to conserve and reuse linen within guest rooms. New York City has implemented several programs outside the hotel industry in regards to environmental preservation. In the industry, it could be advantageous to obtain programs that grasp loyal guests attention and at the same time keeping in mind environmental conservancy.

Furthermore, the specter of hazards and injuries has caused anxiety and stress which leads to decrease in employee’s work performances.

So, to prevent the workplace injuries, we are going to work with Wyndham Garden Hotel located in Chinatown, NY and help them to introduce various techniques. This includes; promoting and encouraging the employees to exercise and stretch in regular basis both before and during the shift and also providing all the new hires as well as existing staff a risk avoidance training in a specific way with a language that employees can understand clearly.

thesis statement on tuvalu

Man-made changes to the environment and the resulting rising of ocean levels will submerge the island nation of Tuvalu. It may be too late to save their land, but there is much we can do to help them and show the world what is happening there. Using the lens of travel and travel tourism is the approach that I would recommend. My suggestion would be that since the baby booming population is considered to be the group of travelers to take trips more often during the year, then they should add Tuvalu as one of the places to visit (before it is too late). One way to promote that would be travel blogging. Using people in power to help bring about change for the Tuvaluans. Using technology in a positive way, promoting the country. It will also serve to show the world that climate change is real.
