How we calculate
Estimates use industry averages: 1.8 guests per occupied room, 1.5 × 500 ml bottles per guest night (12 g plastic, 83 g CO₂e and $0.35 each, less 20% refill running cost); 0.8 kg food waste per guest night with 80% composted (0.58 kg CO₂e and $0.12 landfill fee avoided per kg); 600 L water per room night with 30% replaced by rainwater ($3 and 0.34 kg CO₂e per m³). Low-flow fixtures cut bathroom water (50% of use) by 30%; greywater reuse covers 25% of water; bulk dispensers replace 4 miniatures per room night (10 g plastic, $0.25 each, 60% cheaper); 0.2 kg glass per guest night recycled (0.3 kg CO₂e per kg); LED lighting saves 60% of lighting energy (15% of 25 kWh per room night, $0.18 and 0.45 kg CO₂e per kWh). Results are indicative and vary by property.
