Atlanta Luxury Hotel Green Tip
Give internet conferencing a crack.
There are several diverse internet meeting solutions that allow video conference and sharing of documents with both presenters and delegates. These alternatives are so good that you can do business from your office instead of traveling. Of course there will be times when you simply must go to Atlanta and go to see the person. Still, if every business could substitute some flights with an online meeting things would start looking up for our shared environment.

More Atlanta Resorts Green Tips
Explore your intended destination for Eco-Friendly properties.
Frequently you'll find that you save money by picking environmentally friendly lodging. You can now find many assessment and certification programs assessing the environmental efforts of establishments. In the U.S. several states and municipalities have developed certification programs. The result is similar internationally with many countries providing certification ratings. Research where you'll be staying and find out if there is a country or state program for "Green" accommodations. There are also numerous first-rate online listings of environmentally friendly accommodations. Naturally, when searching for a place to stay in Atlanta our preference is iStayGreen.org
Get some brisk air & exercise, walk or bike instead of renting.
You'll find that in major cities there usually are excellent transportation systems in-place. Trains, buses, trolleys, elevated rail, subways, and light rail are but some of the ways you can navigate the key metros and their suburbs. Not only is public transit a more eco-friendly alternate, you may also observe that you save money by not paying for the rental car, parking, valet and petrol costs. Most Atlanta hotels are within short walking distance of restaurants, fast food, shops, and other services frequented by Atlanta travelers. If the distance isn't too great give a bike a shot and get a little exercise. Not only will you depress carbon emissions but you'll get good exercise in the process.
Hang the privacy card on you room's door knob.
Daily housekeeping is not ordinarily needed so let housekeeping know. Having your Atlanta suite cleaned takes more resources than you might guess. It uses water, electricity, soap and gas to clean the sheets and towels. Countertops are sprayed with chemicals. Vacuuming not only sucks up dirt, it sucks up electricity too. Soaps and shampoos replace partially used bottles and bars, not only being wasteful but also adding to non-biodegradable waste. Do your part to maintain your environment by questioning yourself "Does my hotel room genuinely need cleaning each day?"
