Senior travel and tourism celebrity Geoffrey Lipman has a firm message to US President Elect Donald J Trump.
Professor Geoffrey Lipman is president of the Haleiwa, Hawaii, USA based global travel industry association ICTP, International Coalition of Tourism Partners.
Brussels based Professor Lipman is a recognized senior celebrity in the Global Travel and Tourism industry. He was the founder and first CEO of WTTC, the World Travel and Tourism Council, and he was the assistant Secretary General for the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO).
Currently he is the president of the International Coalition of Tourism Partners (ICTP), a Hawaii, Seychelles, Brussels and Bali based international organization of destinations and tourism stakeholders with a specific goal of Green Growth + Quality = Business.
Professor Lipman is alarmed about Donald J. Trump won the most powerful job in the world.
“This election gave the most powerful job in the world to a man who denies climate change (as a Chinese hoax), says he will rip up the Paris Agreement, not put any US money into the Global Climate Fund, emasculate at best the EPA (Environment Protection Agency) and will take the shackles off the US (and hence global) fossil fuel sector.”
