Sustainable Tourism Green Initiatives...
Hotel Association of Canada's Green Key Eco-Rating Program:
The Strathcona Hotel has been awarded "3 Green Keys" by the Hotel Association of Canada's Green Key Eco-Rating Program. According to the HAC, the rating of 3 Green Keys describes "A hotel that has taken significant steps to protect the environment. Strong environmental programs, best management practices, training programs, and engineering solutions have been implemented which have benefited the environment and the local community." We are committed to the continual improvement of our green initiatives and aim to achieve the highest "5 Green Key" rating within the next 2 years. Click here for more info.
Project Planet:
The Project Planet program is an effort of this hotel to protect the environment through conservation of water and decreased use of detergent. Click here to find out more.
Environmentally Friendly Lighting:
We are converting all light bulbs to Genesis Fusion CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamps). They are smaller, greener and brighter, on average outputting 70+ lumens per watt with beautiful colour rendering, than traditional incandescent bulbs. The Genesis Fusion bulbs are the safest CFL's for the environment, containing only 1mg of mercury and using lead-free solder and glass.
100% Non-Smoking:
The entire hotel is now 100% non-smoking.
More initiatives are being implemented every month so check back soon.
