绿色通道指南

我想起了这个问题,当我访问另一个酒店,我发现客户注意到,“帮助节约用水,帮助拯救世界,“从本质上讲,它指示客人使用毛巾扔在地板上,并不是所有的毛巾需要洗熨。有时我们被告知不要请求床单每天变化。既不请求对我来说是一个问题,所以我接受挑战是绿色旅游或商务旅客。然后我走出房间,发现服务购物车non-HEPA真空,健康警示标签上的清洁剂,纸制品,没有回收。我还指出,单一的塑料水瓶在房间里用瓶子代替可生物降解。作为一个熟练的观察者和频繁的旅行者,我看到小电节约设备或灯的使用。浪费不是管理,酒店往往简单地扔掉旧家具和设备的速度比其他业务。然而,我注意到其中的几个酒店希望他们的客户知道他们是绿色酒店。通过酒店幽默,我猜。坦率地说,知道我从绿色通道系统,我通常在大多数旅馆非常失望,但也有少数例外像希尔顿在波多黎各,绿色在大的方面去了。 The worst example that I ever came across was a well-publicized hotel shuttle service serving hotel guests out of the Chicago O’Hare airport. They even proclaim their Green shuttle on their billboards. When I asked why this conventional, diesel-powered bus was Green; the driver shrugged his shoulders and could not answer the question. Not even the desk clerk could tell me why the shuttle was Green. I decided to figure it out on my own, so I asked more questions. Well, it came down to this. Several hotels within a half-mile range of each other had pooled together to use the same shuttle and that pooled effort made the shuttle “Green”! Kudos for the idea, but it still demonstrates how little these hotels really know about a Green or sustainable program. The picture used for this article has a hotel “Painted Green,” and it calls itself “The Green Hotel.”

我建议酒店使用的免费软件绿色通道评估项目。注册时,输入“酒店”为你的行业类型。你会发现一组独特的hotel-related,绿色的改进。他们都是非常有效的,很多都是钱储蓄者。认证的工作系统,直到你有足够的点,然后要求审计师检查你的工作。你可以告诉世界你的酒店是绿色的,和理由,公众将有信心相信你的环境拥有。
