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.
