Abstract

Sustainable environmental management practice is the main contributor to green tourism in the context of the tourism industry. Tourists who are concerned about the environment are more likely to choose a tourism destination with the green tourism concept. Great environmental management can contribute to both conservation and tourism industry development, which involves a dynamic relationship between tourism, biodiversity and communities. This paper focuses mainly on tourism activities related to the sustainable environmental management practices such as energy management, waste management, waste water treatment and the use of local products and community participation in the instance of the Borneo Rainforest Lodge (BRL), which the authors offer as an exemplary green tourism destination.
