Tourisme Durable Québec (TDQ) provides a greenhouse gas emissions calculator specifically designed for organizations in Quebec’s tourism industry.
Calculating your carbon footprint is an essential step toward better understanding the impact of our activities on the climate and recognizing our contribution to climate change. This tool will help you identify the main sources of emissions (Scopes 1, 2, and 3) for your organization and your events.
Video tutorials are available to help you get started with the tool and enable you to perform your calculations independently.
The Circular Economy Toolkit for Tourist Accommodations, provided by RECYC-QUÉBEC and the ministère du Tourisme, offers resources to support your circular economy initiatives and help you take action.

In particular, you can consult the general fact sheets on circular economy (Fact Sheet 1) and information, awareness, and education (Fact Sheet 3), the fact sheet specific to food services (Fact Sheet 7), the responsible procurement guide, and the responsible procurement policy template.
