Organisation and dynamic of the Leisure parks For the Leisure parks, the environmental situation is more fragmented with a lesser immediate impact, given that these destinations are in more built-up areas (mostly on the fringes of urban areas). Therefore, according to the size and activity of the Leisure park, environmental issues are not always handled by a dedicated person within the organisation.
Green Globe initiative: four Ski areas have this certification, which means that 40% of its skier-days in FY 2019/2020 took place at Green Globe certified sites. This international certification, specific to the tourism sector, is based on 41 criteria relating to sustainable development. It acknowledges significant achievements but also encourages progress. l In 2015, Société des Téléphériques de la Grande Motte (STGM) became the first Green Globe certified ski lift operator in the world. l In 2016, Société des Téléphériques de Val-d’Isère (STVI) followed in its footsteps, with Tignes-Val-d’Isère becoming the first Green Globe certified connected ski area. In 2014, it had already obtained ISO 50001 certification for energy management, a first for a ski area. l In autumn 2016, Grand Massif Domaines Skiables, which connects five ski resorts (Morillon, Samoëns, Flaine, Les Carroz and Sixt-Fer- à-Cheval), is Green Globe certified, not only for all its ski lifts but also for its slopes and associated services. l In Q1 2018, Serre Chevalier Valley included Green Globe certification as part of its progress towards a sustainable model for all its ski area operation activities. New initiatives supported by two Ski areas involve other players in the resort and cover an additional 28% of skier-days. l In December 2018, with the support of Sevabel, a Compagnie des Alpes subsidiary, Les Ménuires became the first French ski resort to join the POW Resort Alliance, run by the Protect Our Winter association. In doing so it became part of the club of resorts which lead the way on climate change, with the aim of demonstrating that joint action and advocacy on climate issues can have a positive impact and that it is never too late to preserve living and leisure areas. l In January 2020, with the participation of ADS, a subsidiary of Compagnie des Alpes, Les Arcs-Bourg Saint Maurice is committed to the Flocon vert approach, a label of excellence guaranteeing the sustainable commitment of mountain resorts, run by the Mountain Riders association.
Parc Astérix (Grévin & Cie) certifié ISO 50001
2018
2019
Parc du Futuroscope certifié ISO 50001
Our two largest French parks are committed to better energy management through ISO 50001 certifications, i.e. almost half (45%) of the visitor days of the Group’s Leisure parks. l In August 2018, Parc Astérix obtained ISO 50001 for all its activities (leisure parks, catering, hotel complexes, etc.). The certification, obtained through a joint effort, sets out the progress targets for the next three years. In 2019 the Hôtel des 3 hiboux at Parc Astérix was awarded the Clé-Verte label and has embarked on an effective environmental initiative. l Parc du Futuroscope has also obtained this certification for all its activities since January 2019 and has set itself ambitious energy and water management objectives. The park continues to share human and ecological adventures through its events and exhibitions: at Planet Power visitors can take a virtual flight on Solar Impulse, the first solar-powered aircraft to fly round the world or relive the Raid Green Expedition of electric cars from Paris to Cap Nord.
