Business

Planning a business trip?  In the current economy, every business must reduce expenses wherever possible!  There are so many considerations!  Is this trip really necessary?  Will I be able to find a better rate for my flight, hotel and rental car?  Can I schedule my meetings efficiently so that I can stay for the shortest amount of time?  NOW, add another consideration!  Can I maintain my “green” philosophy so that I create the smallest possible carbon footprint?

Well, YOU can worry about the first set of questions and we will help with the final question…and the answer is “yes!”  Most large hotel chains and some airlines are taking responsibility for reducing your energy and water consumption during your travels, so not much effort is required as you make your plans.  It is possible to maintain your environmentally-aware lifestyle, even when you are “on the road.” 

When making your plans, simply ask if the airline or hotel is “green.”  Refer to our Air Travel and Hotel tabs to see the explanations as to the steps that “green” businesses are taking, in order to provide eco-friendly services.

Of course, you will maintain your environmentally-friendly habits of recycling and using your own toiletries, in order to avoid using several plastic bottles of the items provided by the hotel!

Travel “green”—you’ll feel better about your trip!
