blooloop is a finalist in Planet Mark’s 2022 sustainability awards for the greenloop sustainability in visitor attractions conference.
The Planet Mark Annual Awards recognise the “amazing work” of the entrants “from carbon reduction and supply chain engagement to social responsibility.
“Judged by a panel of hand-picked sustainability experts, each award is based on a robust criterion allowing members to communicate their environmental and social achievements with confidence and authenticity – which employees and customers value.”
The award winners will be announced on 3 November.
Climate change is threatening the very foundations of our society. We are coming dangerously close to a point where our society, as we know it, will no longer be able to function. The only way we are going to avoid reaching that that point is working together.

Stakeholder engagement with greenloop
blooloop is one of four finalists in the Stakeholder Engagement category, in recognition of the greenloop sustainability in visitor attractions conference.
This awards category “recognises an organisation that has taken impressive steps to engage with their supply chain and stakeholders, making this an integral part of their sustainability programme”.
blooloop director Rachel Read says, “We’re delighted and honoured to be a finalist for the Planet Mark Awards. Our aim with greenloop was to create an event to inspire and accelerate climate action in the visitor attractions industry.
“We also wanted to highlight best practice and innovation and enable connections. We’ve been amazed by the inspiring stories of our speakers and the positive engagement of our attendees.
“The climate crisis is the biggest challenge we face today. The most effective way to tackle it has to be by working together. Taking action as soon as possible protects both the planet and our businesses.”
Now in its second year, the greenloop 22 conference in April attracted over 400 attendees from all over the world. They heard from operators like Disney, PortAventura, Chester Zoo and The Red Sea Project who are leading the way on climate action.
When it comes to solving really big challenges, like how do we build sustainable theme parks, resorts and cruise ships around the world, it takes all of us and all of these different industries coming together. And that’s what’s great about greenloop … our collaboration is key to really think about how we build sustainable themed entertainment experiences.

Planet Mark’s Net Zero Programme
Planet Mark’s Net Zero Programme supports businesses on the path to net zero. The sustainability certification offers a “simple three-step process that supports members achieve their sustainability goals”.
“Our certification involves a robust three-step process. It will help businesses to accelerate their actions, excite their employees and amplify their voice.”
The benefits in taking action are many. They include: “Attracting and retaining the right people, increased cost savings through reductions in emissions; and ultimately, a future-proofed business.”
Having a credible net zero strategy will be the cost of doing business in the future and large organisations are building net zero actions into their tenders and the supply chain having to set net zero targets. So there’s a real competitive advantage for companies who are treating this as an opportunity to differentiate themselves from the competitors.
