Waterless urinals

Information

The best solution to reduce water consumption for urinal flushing is to install waterless urinals. They operate using chemical-impregnated plastic pads, or a spring-loaded trap and a floating layer of oil as barrier. The best thing for the environment is to use the 'chemical-free', waterless option.

Local transport and 'green' mobility in tourist centres

Information

Providing free or low-cost access to green options for local mobility appeals to guests who are conscious of their carbon footprint. Options include encouraging use of local transport, bicycles and electric vehicles over land and providing kayaks, rowboats and other water-based modes of transport.

The most effective way for accommodation managers to encourage eco-efficient transport is to offer discounts to guests arriving by public transport, and to provide a pick-up service for these guests.
