The concept of green hotel

"Green hotel" can be simply translated as "green hotel", but internationally, "green hotel" is translated as "eco-efficient hotel", which means "eco-efficient hotel". Because "eco" is also the prefix of economy, the word also implies the meaning of economic benefits, which is to give full play to the economic benefits of resources. It should be said that the green hotel is just a metaphor to guide the development direction of the hotel in environmental management. It can be understood as similar to the concept of sustainable development, that is, hotels that can provide comfortable, safe and healthy products to the society, adhere to the rational use of resources, protect the ecological environment and create economic benefits for the hotel itself in the whole business process with a responsible attitude towards society and the environment. In short, it is a win-win result of environmental benefits and economic benefits.

Green hotel refers to the hotel whose products and services meet the requirements of making full use of resources, protecting the ecological environment and benefiting customers' health. From the perspective of sustainable development theory, "green hotel" means that the development of the hotel industry must be based on the carrying capacity of the ecological environment and conform to the local economic development and moral norms, that is, first, through energy-saving, electricity-saving and water-saving, the natural resources should be rationally utilized to slow down resource depletion; The second is to reduce the generation and discharge of wastes and pollutants, promote the compatibility between the production and consumption process of hotel products and the environment, and reduce the environmental hazard risk of the whole hotel.
