CHALLENGES

CONCERNS

Although Covid-19 is likely the biggest global crisis since the second world war, it is still dwarfed in the long term by climate change. Yet the two problems have suggestive similarities. Both will require unusual levels of global cooperation. Both demand changes in behaviour today in the name of reducing suffering tomorrow. (April, 2020)

IDEAS

Hotels should offer COVID-19 packages for an additional fee that includes small packages of disinfectant wipes, small hand sanitizer bottles, and even alcohol wipes. This may create additional revenue and help guests reassure their safety. (April, 2020)
