Green travel – and most importantly green hotels and lodging – may be the most important thing you can do to save the planet.

Pretty bold statement – but look at the evidence:

• Hotels use a huge amount of water
• Hotels have massive cleaning operations
• Waste management for a hotel is roughly the same as 1.2 times that of a single family home – for EVERY room

These are just the top 3.  Processes for managing employee consumption, HVAC, and disposal of cleaning supplies are all INDIVIDUALLY important items.  The difference between using a green certified hotel versus a non-certified hotel, multiplied by EVERY traveler – is something that can help the planet on a massive scale.
