OVERVIEW AND HOTSPOTS ANALYSIS OF THE TOURISM VALUE CHAIN IN MAURITIUS
The environmental hotspots identified for the tourism sector in Mauritius are broadly split
between:
-Impacts relating to the production, transportation and consumption of food and beverage products (e.g. meat, fish and seafood and fresh produce production and
shipment, food loss and waste, energy used in refrigeration, preparation and cooking of food).
-Impacts relating to the provision of services to the sector from other sectors of the economy (e.g. power generation and energy and water supply);
-Impacts arising from deficiencies in national infrastructure (e.g. the lack of recycling infrastructure, dated waste and water infrastructure which can lead to environmental pollution and preventable GHG emissions);
-Impacts relating to the built environment in the tourism sector (e.g. hotel and restaurant energy use heating, ventilation and air conditioning lighting, preparation of
food; water use in washing and sanitation, cleaning of rooms and public spaces; and for leisure activities, like swimming pools and spas)
