It is finally week 13 of this semester! To recap I have covered the focus of the hotel industry, the environmental impacts caused by hotels, and the different roles of hotels, organisations and guests. Finally, I will be wrapping up by sharing my ideal hotel and my journey beyond this blog.
My ideal eco friendly hotel. Designed by brilliant architects, this hotel is built such that maximum natural light and wind can penetrate the hotels such that there is no need to use much electricity. In addition, this hotel mainly obtains its electricity from renewable energy sources such as from solar panels.
Furthermore, my ideal hotel could work with non-profit organisations such as those I mentioned in one of my previous posts to reduce their waste and help the needy. Or even better, this hotel organises their own charity work!
As you walk in the hotel, you will be greeted by the lush greenery. The scent of the place is refreshing. Recycling bins are placed on every floor. In each room, certain items are green certified and biodegradable. Disposables are hardly seen and soaps are stored in soap dispensers. Energy saving technologies like the LED lights are being used.
After staying a couple of nights when the guests had an extremely enjoyable and fulfilling stay, they provide feedback on how they support the hotels’ ideas on being eco-friendly and even give valuable ideas on how to be more eco-friendly.
That is, my ideal hotel. Different hotels do have their own unique features and I do hope hotel management take a step to curb the high output.
My goal for this blog is for readers to be more aware on the environmental impacts caused by the hotel industry, and what individuals can do to stop. Throughout my whole blogging experience, I am glad to be able to research on this topic, which I initially had little knowledge of. As I continue with my studies, I hope to continue venturing into other aspects of the hotel industry’s impact on the environment. Indeed, there is so much more that I need to learn and expand my knowledge on. That’s all folks! Thank you for reading my blog and joining me in my learning journey experience. All the best!
Till next time!
