Dissertation note: College of Liberal Arts .-- Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management: Technological University of the Philippines, 2024. Summary: The Philippines, renowned for its scenic beauty, has witnessed a substantial increase in tourism, with over two million tourists arriving in 2022. However, the increase in tourism has created new environmental problems, such as garbage pollution and a rise in carbon footprints. La Union, a popular tourist location, has comparable problems, emphasizing the significance of evaluating green policies in resorts. The implementation and maintenance of green practices in resorts in La Union are difficult due to policies, management, resource limits, financial limitations, and low awareness. These challenges contribute to the persistence of the tourism industry's negative environmental impact. This study intends to promote sustainable tourism practices in La Union in response to the rising demand for environmentally friendly practices. The study reveals that resorts in La Union have taken actions toward sustainability, aligning with the local government's sustainable tourism goals. To address these challenges, this study proposes educational programs, training sessions, and collaborations with environmental organizations, local communities, and government agencies. These initiatives aim to raise awareness and support resorts in their green endeavors to mitigate the environmental impact of the tourism industry. The research utilizes qualitative phenomenology as its design and involves interviews with five resort employees. Findings indicate challenges related to waste management, guest behavior, resource allocation, and awareness. The study recommends multi-faceted approaches, employee training, renewable energy adoption, use of eco-friendly resources, and ongoing efforts to enhance eco-friendliness. This aims to reduce the environmental impact and promote sustainability by fostering cooperation with local communities, NGOs, and environmental organizations.

Includes bibliography:

The Philippines, renowned for its scenic beauty, has witnessed a substantial increase in
tourism, with over two million tourists arriving in 2022. However, the increase in tourism
has created new environmental problems, such as garbage pollution and a rise in carbon
footprints. La Union, a popular tourist location, has comparable problems, emphasizing the
significance of evaluating green policies in resorts. The implementation and maintenance
of green practices in resorts in La Union are difficult due to policies, management, resource
limits, financial limitations, and low awareness. These challenges contribute to the
persistence of the tourism industry's negative environmental impact. This study intends to
promote sustainable tourism practices in La Union in response to the rising demand for
environmentally friendly practices. The study reveals that resorts in La Union have taken
actions toward sustainability, aligning with the local government's sustainable tourism
goals. To address these challenges, this study proposes educational programs, training
sessions, and collaborations with environmental organizations, local communities, and
government agencies. These initiatives aim to raise awareness and support resorts in their
green endeavors to mitigate the environmental impact of the tourism industry. The research
utilizes qualitative phenomenology as its design and involves interviews with five resort
employees. Findings indicate challenges related to waste management, guest behavior,
resource allocation, and awareness. The study recommends multi-faceted approaches,
employee training, renewable energy adoption, use of eco-friendly resources, and ongoing
efforts to enhance eco-friendliness. This aims to reduce the environmental impact and
promote sustainability by fostering cooperation with local communities, NGOs, and
environmental organizations.
