Oftentimes when we are heading to a vacation we want to have absolutely nothing to worry about. But, if you’re even a little bit environmentally conservative, when you are staying at a large hotel, it might cross your mind to think about all the waste that may take place. From the individually packaged shampoos and soaps to the thousands of gallons of water used to rewash the sheets that you slept in the night before.

Well worry no more! Well, worry less, I suppose. Now when looking for lodging, you can look for those that have been given the Green Seal. Green Seal is a 20-year-old, independent, non-profit organization dedicated to creating a more sustainable world. Green Seal created rigorous, science-based criteria for the lodging industry, which includes nearly 30 environmentally responsible components required for a hotel. Check out their website at www.GreenSeal.org.

Unfortunately, it is a pretty rigorous and thorough test, so not too many places can brag about it. Green Seal created an unbiased standard for the lodging industry, known as GS-33, which encompasses almost 30 environmentally responsible components required by a hotel: recycling, energy conservation, water conservation, socially responsible purchasing, to name a few. Meeting these requirements means those resorts are substantially reducing our environmental impact and practicing sustainable
leadership.

Some of the few requirements include sweeping the sidewalk instead of washing them, toilet tissue is made from at least 20 percent recycled fibers; facial tissue from at least 10 percent recycled fibers; and napkins and paper towels from at least 40 percent recycled fibers. Some others include, amenities (soap, shampoo, etc.) are packaged in recyclable materials and unused portions are donated to charity when possible; shower heads, faucets and aerators use low-flow, water-conserving fixtures or retrofits.

These eco-friendly and environmentally responsible hotels might be few and far between, but the differences they are making and the standards they are setting are worth the search. By supporting these businesses, you can help the hotel business know how important it is to there consumers to be green. скачать порноролики бесплатно лесбиянки
