Going Green

"There has been a dramatic change in the hotel industry during the past five years, with a lot of voluntary initiatives to become more environmentally responsible," observes Tedd Saunders, president of Boston-based EcoLogical Solutions, Inc. "Every hotel company today has some properties that focus on environmental issues. In the next five to ten years, we'll see this happening company-wide, and the hotel that has not undertaken a substantial environmental program will be the exception."
