EcoPurchasing Guide for Hotels and Motels

This attractive and well-written document is highly recommended for hotels and motels interested in lowering costs, reducing toxic waste, and conserving energy through environmentally responsible management. The paper outlines the steps necessary to organizing an eco-purchasing program, and it lists suggestions divided into specific categories: hotel and motel offices, housekeeping, laundry, food and beverage services, and energy efficiency. It’s comprehensive, relevant, and enjoyable to read, but readers should keep in mind the 1993 publishing date.
