Go Green When You Travel!

by erin on Saturday, May 12th, 2007

Bloomberg has an article about a hotel in California which has ‘gone green’ with low-flow toilets and shower heads and by installing solar lights!

The article starts:

Visitors to the Gaia Napa Valley Hotel and Spa won’t find the Gideon Bible in the nightstand drawer. Instead, on the bureau will be a copy of “An Inconvenient Truth,” former Vice President Al Gore’s book about global warming.

They’ll also find the Gaia equipped with waterless urinals, solar lighting and recycled paper as it marches toward becoming California’s first hotel certified as “green,” or benevolent to the environment. Similar features are found 35 miles south at San Francisco’s Orchard Garden Hotel, which competes for customers with neighboring luxury hotels like the Ritz-Carlton and Fairmont.

Interesting stuff! To learn more, check out the full article here.

Also worth checking out is the Gaia Napa Valley Hotel and Spa’s website, where they call themselves “Napa Valley’s First Environmentally- Sustainable Hotel!” It definitely looks vacation-worthy.
