The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce is committed to being a leader in business sustainability and sustainable tourism in Jackson Hole and Teton County, Wyoming. We seek to preserve our natural and cultural heritage while contributing to local economic development and sustainability. We seek to inspire and educate our Member businesses and guests and introduce them to our authentic and incomparable natural and cultural heritage. We seek to engage our staff, suppliers, and community to work collaboratively towards a goal of improved sustainability for the destination we serve.

We are working to promote sustainable business and destination policy and practices based upon the criteria developed by the Global Sustainable Tourism Council. In partnership with Sustainable Travel International, the Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce is developing and implementing sustainability policy and practices in our organization and encouraging other businesses and organizations to do so as well. These policy and practices include the areas of Finances and Business Planning, Economic Development, Cultural Protection and Promotion, Environmental Stewardship, Education, Health and Safety, Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Purchasing, and Waste Management. We plan to receive certification from Sustainable Travel International for our demonstrated commitment to sustainability policy and practices. We also encourage businesses to participate in the Yellowstone Business Partnership’s Yellowstone Business Partnership’s Uncommon Sense Program. YBP provides a two-year training and mentorship program for adopting sustainable business policies and implementing sustainable business practices. As we progress in our efforts to participate and promote sustainable business and destination policy and practices in these and other programs, we will post specific information on our work on this web page.

The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce Believes that Green=Green. From our dynamic economy, to our strong sense of community, to the importance of our public lands, the Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce believes that Green=Green. The implementation of sustainable business practices can positively affect an organization’s bottom line; being green can save green (money). And in today’s environmentally conscious marketplace, being green can even make green (money)! Green=Green is an outlook that places the residents of Jackson Hole and the greater Teton region at an advantage because implementation of this ideal strengthens our triple bottom line.

Respecting the Power of Place: The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce's brand says "Respecting the Power of Place." What does that mean? What is the power of this place we call Jackson Hole?
