Green Your Meetings with Sustainable Planning: Sustainable Accommodations

Sustainable Planning – Don’ts and Dos – 
Look to the standards on: Sustainable Accommodations


Don’t ignore your hotel’s sustainability program.

Do make sure to support your hotel’s sustainability program and encourage all attendees to take advantage of the various sustainability initiatives, such as linen reuse and recycling. The sustainability standards that explain the performance requirements for Accommodations can be found at www.conventionindustry.org/StandardsPractices/APEXASTM/GettingAPEXASTM.aspx. If you read the standards, you’ll know what is expected, so you can select accommodations that meet industry standards.
