Hosted for the first time at St James’ Sofitel, Arena’s most recent event centred around arguably the most pressing issue facing the industry and the world at large: how can we all work to create a more sustainable future?

Here at jellybean, we’re passionate about the environment, and making small, everyday changes that can help make a difference towards fighting climate change.
As time goes on, we are learning more about our earth and our oceans, and how they impact our day-to-day life. It is no longer just about living side by side with planet earth, everything is linked and intertwined. Essentially, we have a symbiotic relationship with nature – something we have been treating as a parasitic relationship. We have been taking more than we can give, and it is time to start giving back. We already know that climate change is a real danger, and that our oceans store large amounts of carbon dioxide – so what steps, however small, can we do as individuals to help?
Last week, Arena, The Hospitality Network held an insightful webinar tackling the importance of sustainability in the workplace.
