Make your next stay green.

Green certified hotels, inns, and resorts have taken measures to use less and recycle more, reducing energy, waste and water.

Here’s why*
  • Average-sized hotels purchase more products in one week than 100 families do in a year.
  • Waste generation can be as high as 30 pounds per room per day; as much as 80 percent of these materials can be recycled.
  • Hospitality industry spends $3.7 billion a year on energy.  Electricity use accounts for 60-70 percent of the utility costs of a typical hotel.
  • Two percent of California’s food waste comes from the hotel and lodging industry (112,000 tons per year). This food waste can be composted and/or donated to charities.
  • Typical hotels use 218 gallons of water per day per occupied room.  Water-efficient fixtures can reduce water and sewer bills by 25-30 percent.
