They give a crap? Heck businesses give a crap about the environment? Pretty sure a large majority don't. And if we were to start nitpicking I'm pretty sure there are WAY more businesses out there that have the same problems, if they are problems in the first place that OP pointed out. Heck even individual homes (at least some) can be pointed out in that case if we were to match the scale of expenditure that an individual home has over casinos.

Unless the business damages the environment badly enough for the government to work, pretty sure they don't do any risk mitigation above the bare minimum.

pretty sure they do but don't really care about it as much as they care about making money. As for whether are they doing mitigation risk? I remember a thread on this board talking about CSR(Corporate Social Responsibility), but as far as I know, it is not focused on environmental issues. CSR is basically a community service from companies where they are required(if the government or regulators require it) to do something for the society or community.

They don't care about that and even they cares, they will not do many things and will hire third party to clean up that while they can focus to make money. We don't know how big their waste because we are not doing research for that but maybe there are some organization that research on every business and report to the government. The impact from their business will be there but they will not thinks much about that so it needs awareness from the government to approach to them and talk with them to cares with the environment. But that will depends on how the government works on that so we can only see what will happen later.

I haven't see a topic discussed here about the environmental effects of land base casinos. Do you guys think that they also contributed or has impact to the environment as we all know that they are operating 24x7, consuming water and obviously electricity, a high energy demands.

So with that, this business is operates using substantial amounts of electricity for their slot machines and aircon and could really put a lot of strain as there is a constant need for electricity 24x7. And what if the source of energy comes for non-renewable sources? it could lead to higher carbon emissions.

Another could be the high water consumption, this casinos have large swimming pools and so there is the demand. We could question them if there is water scarcity in a country wherein this casinos have been built.

We could also look at waste generation, do you know how big casinos disposed those substantial waste that their visitor creates? There could be large volumes of waste produce daily but we don't know if they have a proper safe waste disposal system.

Mixing holidays with gambling can be a complex and sensitive issue, depending on individual perspectives and cultural contexts. For those who love entertainment and socializing, gambling during the holidays could be added excitement and thrill and be a way to connect with others and enjoy their collective experiences.
While those who consider traveling during this period, it could be an economic boost in areas of tourism too.
Ultimately, whether mixing holidays with gambling is "good" or "bad" depends on individual circumstances, personal values, and responsible behavior.

I don't really think a casino cares about environmental impact. They care about making money. Think about it, by the time the impact is seen the owners of the casino will likely be dead and new owners will be running the place. Why would they care about consequences they won't see?

Right, this could be the last thing that a business owner will think, to care about the environment. Of course it will be good if they did, or at least donate millions on some non-profit organizations about environment and others.

But if I'm a casino operators, I wouldn't prioritized this one, maybe there could be groups that will go against casinos, but this issues is the last one that they will have to deal. They will have to recoup first their capital and then make profits before thinking other parameters.

To be honest, you are right. Even if they’re aware about those negative environmental effects, they won’t care. All they care is about money and generate more money each and every day. And if ever there will be complaints, know that everything will be paid with money. That’s what the casino owner believes, so they’ll stick to it. Because in reality, the people around will only dare to make noise if they don’t receive proper compensation. But as long as money moves, everything get settled in silence.

Those are very negligible, probably a little higher than a commercial building like a restaurant so the environmental impact is not a big factor in my opinion.

Whereas it has social impact that is why it's restricted to operate in a school or even residence zone to avoid any disturbance to the public reside there, if we look at the environment impacts of every business then no one can run any business so people won't have jobs means there will be no circulation of money which will leads to the economic dysfuntion.

The casinos that exist today don't care about the environment at all, because they just try hard to make money. Because the new casino owners have come in since the previous owners have gone away and I think they don't realize it.
Water and electricity can play a significant role so I think these casinos really don't have to worry about it.

There's no impact on the environment from having constant power supply and water and other necessities needed to keep a casino running because just like any business, those are necessities and without them there would be no profit or gains from the investment in such a business.

Casinos are made for business, they make lot of money but also spend lot of money on taxes and also various other expenses such as paying for electricity usage and also paying for environmental cleanliness, not caring about the impact on the environment because they have paid for everything needed to handle it.
But now everything has shifted online and of course there is not much negative impact on the environment as what are saying here, I think such concerns are too much and look at various other industrial businesses also have the same impact but they can still continue to operate.

I think it's not just the casino business that has an impact on the community environment, most big businesses like big factories that operate in the middle of the community also cause environmental damage, no one can be blamed if the business is legal and they pay taxes according to the rules, they only run a business that makes a profit for themselves, when it comes to environmental concerns, business people rarely pay attention, they only care about their own business so that it runs smoothly.

They already know about that because if not, the government will give sanction to them. And if they care about that, they will use renewable energy than using the same thing as the other casinos. They will promoting a usable of renewable energy and environmentally friendly place so that will make people comfortable when they playing gambling in that casino.

If you want to know more, you need to visit on each casino and ask to one of their employee to know for details. Most people who visit on the land base casino will not think about that because they only want to spend their time by playing gambling. They don't even thinks where the garbage will be deliver. As long as they can follow the instruction from the regulator, they will be fine and can operate their business without having a problem.

Of course, they will be conducting their risk mitigation. You painted these casinos standard and I don't see a standard organization that will not do that, even in many insane countries, they are still obliged to do it, especially if they are successful.

Also, these points you iterated above are not always an issue, some of them do not even have any impact on the environment, other businesses enjoy them too. But for those who have an impact on the environment like electricity generation, the country matters a lot and so does the regulation in the country. For instance, in my country, the electricity is so poor, so most businesses use a power generator, which is not environmentally friendly. But if electricity can be provided for them in a good country, it affects nothing so long as they pay their bills.

What business doesn't have impact to the environment anyway? I guess the environment is the least of the concerns of brick-and-mortar casinos. It's the concern primarily of the government agencies assigned to it.

For as long as casinos are compliant with the rules and regulations regarding proper waste disposal and other stuff that affect the environment, I guess that's enough. But if we expect them to be strong advocates of the environment, it isn't their line of business.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills

Quote from: Alpha Marine on November 14, 2024, 05:40:06 PM

Almost everybody uses electricity constantly and also uses water every day, so why are the casinos being singled out? How about malls and restaurants? hotels? literally every business out there uses electricity all day and many more use water too so I don't see why this is something the casinos should be looking at.
I understand that we should take care of our planet, but is there an alternative to electricity? You don't expect the casinos not to use electricity and water anymore. But if you want to hold the casinos responsible for consuming electricity, you have to include every other businesses and individuals that uses electricity every day.

Even hotels and their factory industries are bigger in impacts such as waste, electricity use, water and to other environments, whereas traditional gambling will not be as big as hotels or other factories.

Why we point to casinos is because they are always viewed negatively, which assumes that casinos are only concerned with profits without caring about others, but I believe traditional casinos already have several sections assigned to manage waste and others.

I think land-based casinos that operate have thought about this, because of course before they build or establish a casino, they definitely open a discussion first with the government in their country and of course in this discussion it seems that electricity, water or other issues are also discussed. As far as I know, land-based casinos that operate tend to be very clean and free from garbage, which indicates that they are well disciplined, and so do I think with responsibilities outside the casino.

Maybe there are also casinos that don't care about the environmental impact of their casinos, but that's an irresponsible act, right? Casino owners should be able to take care of everything properly because that way of course it's for the good of their own business in the future. For example, now there are land-based casinos that don't take care of their garbage, in other words they throw garbage carelessly somewhere, I think that will be a problem where there might be complaints from the surrounding community to the government and of course this could be a problem for their business.

There are positive and negative environmental impacts from casinos since you are asking if they are aware.
I think they are aware of the environment, but I don't think they care about the impact of the casino on the environment. I don't see any news here in my country for the positive impact of casinos on the environment; almost negative impact is what I see on the news.
I am more confident if they give more donations for local community benefits than fixing those negative environmental impacts.

The only land-based casino that I know in this part of the world is called ground casino, and this casino is located in one of the most luxurious hotels in the country's capital city, for that, whatever services that the casino or customers enjoy being paid for and for sure it a service and the casino will still generate the return from their customers one way or the other, and that should not be a thing that gamblers should worry too much trying to debate what the level of impact of operating a casino within an establishment, because gambling on it own is a business that generates its income and by so doing, they transfer the debt burdens to the end users which is the gambler.

Some of the few impact of the presence of a physical casino within a premises may not be limited to those we have to mentioned such as environmental pollution due to the activities cominyfrom those gambler's visiting the casino and other businesses that are run in the casino environment.

I don't know about the risk of physical casinos in our environment but I could share what effects the cockpit near us brings whenever it's open for gambling. (Mondays and Tuesdays, they have big events)
1. Garbage is the first one. Since many people will attend the events and gamble, trash is all over the place especially those who eat outside since there are really no food stores inside the cockpit.
2. Heavy traffic. Cars and motorcycles are parked everywhere and sometimes they will even go as far as our subdivision to park their car although there's a parking lot allotted by the cockpit. The problem is they all don't fit there, especially in big events.
3. Noises. Every corner near the cockpit there are people talking loudly discussing the fight that happened and you will hear a lot of curses from their mouths.

I think it’s essential that casinos and businesses in general take responsibility for their environmental impact. Some resorts and casinos have started implementing eco-friendly practices, like using energy-efficient lighting or investing in renewable energy. However, there’s still much progress to be made, especially in waste management and water conservation.
