Green Hotels 2 by Barry Loughran

When people think of reducing energy from a product or service, you would also associate reducing the quality. Hotel chains around the world have rewritten the rules by using innovative ideas to enhance their hotels in a more cultured fashion. Whilst the style is turned up a notch, the prices are lowered as a result of the hotel saving money on their annual fuel bills.

Whether the changes they are making are small or big, everyone will benefit, from the consumer receiving lower prices, hotels having lower energy bills to the planet's o zone layer. In fact, the only affected party is the energy companies who are not selling more fuel.

Some chains have introduced small measures such as installing recycling bins in their rooms similar to what we have at home, energy efficient light bulbs, waterless urinals, electrics which turn off when the room is vacated and some offer bicycle hire along with street maps for their guests.

These small measures may seem a novelty to some but over the course of 12 months, it will come to save the hotels thousands of pounds as well as aiding the worlds fight eco fight.

Other chains have taken larger measures having installed gardens within the complex to grow their own food for their restaurants, started recycling their grey water which would normally go to the sewer or even producing their own energy.

Some hotels in China have employed the locals to create their furniture which is helping their local community.
