TripAdvisor Green Certification Expands to Europe, Canada

March 17, 2014

TripAdvisor Green Certification Expands to Europe, Canada

TripAdvisor is extending its GreenLeaders program, which highlights hotels and B&Bs engaging in environmentally friendly practices into 19 new markets. GreenLeaders has grown quickly in the US and it now plans to take the program into Canada and Europe, including the UK, Ireland, Germany, France, Italy and Spain.

The hotel ratings site launched GreenLeaders in April 2013, following consultation with the United Nations Environment Programme, the US Green Building Council, Energy Star, and the International Center for Responsible Tourism Canada. The company has since awarded the status to over 3,700 hotels and B&Bs, ranging from small, independent establishments to multinational brands including Marriott International, Hilton Worldwide, Select Regency and Coast Hotels.

TripAdvisor says GreenLeaders is the largest national green hotel program that directly assesses eco-friendly practices. It assesses each application it receives against environmental criteria including recycling and composting, renewable energy use, electric car charging and green roofing.
