กำหนดพักสีเขียวFindings suggest that green lodging can be defined as concerted and deliberate efforts and practices by lodging operations and their agents to mitigate, ameliorate and eliminate the negative impacts of lodging activities on the environment. To be effective, these efforts and practices should encompass and permeate throughout all business and service delivery processes, and should be supported at all managerial and operational levels of lodging organizations that claim to be ‘green’, or participate in comprehensive environmentally friendly programs. This suggests that the concept of green lodging, therefore, should not be confused with ‘green washing’, or the deliberate manipulation of information by companies to portray themselves and their goods and services as environmentally friendly, when upon further in-depth scrutiny, only some or selected components of their operation adhere to the core principles of the green concept. This finding also suggests that for some lodging operations, green lodging and green lodging management entail a shift in attitudes, practices, behaviors and processes toward embracing and incorporating current ‘green’ or environmentally responsible practices and procedures into all aspects of goods and services production, delivery, consumption and disposal. This also suggests that the first step in understanding and practicing green lodging should be an examination of how each lodging facility impacts the environment in which it operates. In general, lodging facilities are income-producing entities and as such, must install furniture, facilities, equipment and fixture in an effort to create an environment that is esthetically pleasing, safe, secure and physically comforting.
