Sustainable Business Travel: Making a Difference with Marvie Hotel & Health

As many organizations understand the importance of the impact they have on the environment and climate change, sustainably has become an important aspect of many business strategies, which is why numerous companies are redefining their approach to business travels. Sustainable business travel focuses on making choices that benefit the environment, local communities, and personal well-being, which means going beyond just reducing the carbon footprint. It encompasses the entire approach that involves accepting eco-friendly habits throughout the travel cycle, from planning and booking to transportation and accommodation.

Many benefits arise from adopting sustainable business travel practices. Firstly, it helps in preserving natural resources. As business travelers, the choice of transportation, accommodation, and activities in local communities have an impact on the environment. Opting for eco-friendly options helps conserve natural resources. Secondly, it supports local economies. Sustainable travel often involves engaging with local businesses, which contributes to their prosperity. Lastly, it enhances the overall travel experience. Sustainable travel can provide unique and fulfilling experiences. Exploring nature, participating locally in conservation efforts, and immersing in local cultures can make a business trip more rewarding, and employees more productive.

How Business Travelers Can Contribute to Sustainability?

Traveling for business can be done in an environment-friendly way by adopting the right habits. Here are some practical steps business travelers can take to promote sustainability:

1.Make travelling plans in advance

Effective planning plays a crucial role in achieving sustainable travel goals, enabling individuals to identify opportunities for minimizing the environmental footprint of their journeys. It is important to consider factors like the travel destination’s proximity, the available modes of transportation, and the choice of accommodations. This will help you in making eco-friendly decisions from the very beginning, but will also influence your behavior during the journey.

2.Pack light

The weight and the amount of luggage affect eco-friendly practices. The heavier the luggage, the more it contributes to the pollution. It is advisable to use a list to make sure you only bring what you need. Also, for short business trips, it is recommended to bring only a carry-on bag instead of a big, heavy suitcase. It’s easier and causes less pollution.

3.Think about the transportation options

Consider using public transportation or renting an electric car. Additionally, sharing a ride with other colleagues contributes to sustainability as it reduces the number of cars on the road and thus minimizes carbon emissions. If traveling by plane, choose carriers that have a sustainability strategy in place, such as fuel-efficient planes. Switching from paper to digital travel documents is an easy and handy way to help the environment. It cuts down on wasted paper, and it also makes planning and organizing your travel easier.

Once you arrive at your destination, whenever possible, use public transportation, walk, or use a bicycle. Look for hotels that are within walking distance to the event venue where you will be meeting for business purposes, or even better choose the hotel that has the business facilities within its premises. This will not only help reduce your carbon footprint but will also save you traveling time and boost your productivity.

4.Choose Green Accommodations

Book hotels that are committed to sustainability and have already implemented eco-friendly practices. For example, Marvie Hotel & Health prioritizes sustainability in all of its operations. Efficient heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems are installed to optimize energy usage. The hotel actively promotes energy conservation by encouraging guests to reuse towels and linens, thereby reducing water and electricity consumption. Moreover, we have been implementing eco-friendly room amenities, such as natural cellulosic hand towels, toilet paper, and facial tissues, as well as installing smart care dispensers that we re-fill with plant-based, organic shampoos.

We have also installed robust recycling programs to minimize waste whenever possible, reminding our guests to participate in these initiatives as well. Our restaurant serves locally sourced, organic, and seasonal ingredients. Supporting local farmers and reducing food miles is a priority for us. We offer information on eco-friendly transportation options and have charging stations for electric vehicles. We’re committed to making a positive impact. You can read more about our green initiative in one of our previous blogs.

Moreover, all of your business arrangements and work assignments can be done within the hotel, as Marvie offers coworking space equipped with everything you might need for a productive working day, such as a projector with a screen, a flipchart board, work desks, ergonomic chairs, and 200 Mbps Internet.

5.Reduce Energy Consumption

Make sure you act responsibly when within hotel premises: think about reducing water usage by taking shorter showers and reusing towels and linens instead of requesting daily replacements. Adjust the thermostat to an energy-efficient temperature. Consider minimizing plastic waste and carrying a reusable water bottle and shopping bag to reduce single-use plastic consumption. Additionally, turn off lights, air conditioning, and electronics when you’re not in your room (if not done automatically by the hotel where you are staying), and use natural light during the day.

As we enter a new phase of business travel, it’s important to reconsider your company’s strategies and adopt new eco-friendly approaches. Sustainable business travel stands out because it’s a win-win situation for both your company and the local community.

Through conscious choices and behaviors, business travelers can significantly contribute to environmental conservation. Sustainable travel isn’t just a trend; it’s a responsible and rewarding way to explore the world. Sustainability has become a necessity.

At Marvie Hotel & Health, we’re committed to making a difference, and we believe business travelers can play a significant role in environmental conservation while on the road. That is why we’re dedicated to sustainability in every aspect of our operations. As a guest at Marvie Hotel & Health, you’re not just staying in a hotel; you’re becoming a part of our commitment to a greener future. We invite you to join us in making the world a better place, one sustainable journey at a time. Together, we can create an eco-friendlier and more harmonious world for generations to come.
