The world is finally beginning to realise the impact of environmental damage that is caused by everyday activities ranging from the household to the industrial levels, and might even do something about it.
Energy Conservation
This is one of the most popular ways that many providers of accommodation are utilising to become more environmentally conscious. Measures that can be taken in this regard range from using energy-saving LED lights, to relying on architecture that allows for a lot of natural light.
Farm-to-Table Cuisine
Many restaurants throughout the world, especially restaurants in many a luxury hotel group are now relying on ingredients that are freshly farmed onsite or procured locally. This ensures freshness as well as minimal emissions and costs from the transportation of bulk orders.
Ditching Disposables
From using dispensers instead of countless miniature shampoo bottles to ditching plastic straws for ones fashioned out of bamboo, which is currently being pioneered by Anantara Hotels Resorts and Spas as well as AVANI Hotels & Resorts.
Composting
The benefits of turning food waste to compost are numerous. One gets to save costs related to transportation of waste as well as procuring fertiliser. Composting is also a great way to better the image of any resort/hotel.
