Green Leaf Eco-Rating Program

The Audubon Green Leaf Eco-Rating Program for Hotels

TerraChoice Environmental Marketing and Audubon International have partnered to present the Audubon Green LeafTM Program designed to offer great resources for the hospitality industry. Offered at two levels, it enables hotels to succeed with their eco-efficiency savings and environmental commitment. The Program also provides the professional and leisure traveler verified environmentally responsible options.

The introductory level of commitment educates hotels on environmental and eco-efficiency issues. The second level provides hotels with a rating, a report that details how to get to the next level of performance, and an audit that verifies each property’s eco-efficiency functioning.

The Audubon Green Leaf™ Program is based on the premise that what’s good for the environment can be good for business. Through attention to sound, environmentally responsible practices in all areas of its operations, a hotel can reduce its costs and increase its market share, while protecting our natural environment.

TerraChoice is a leading environmental marketing agency that has managed the Green LeafTM Program for Hotels since 1998. Beginning in 2004, the two organizations joined forces to improve the Audubon Green LeafTM Eco-Rating Program by identifying and rewarding lodging facilities that are environmental leaders throughout Canada, the U.S.A. and Europe. Both levels of the Program offer valuable educational and training tools to motivate your staff in their environmental efforts.

Audubon International is a not-for-profit environmental education organization dedicated to assisting and inspiring millions of people from all walks of life to protect and sustain the land, water, wildlife, and natural resources around them. By helping people make sound environmental decisions and actions, and building from individual to community-wide involvement, it seeks to foster more sustainable human and natural communities. Audubon International's partnership with TerraChoice Environmental Marketing brings accommodations into this conservation network of people working to protect the environment.
