The news is not good.
60 million plastic bottles are thrown away every day, with only 10% of those making it to recycling.
By the year 2050, it’s estimated there will be as many plastic bottles as there are fish in the sea.
We are empathetically connected to the problem, yet we’re divided in how it gets solved.
What is it about water that is so compelling to your hotel guests? Underneath it all, there is something in the water.
The bottled water dilemma is inextricably linked to the growing consumer demand for a safe and steady supply of fresh water as an integral part of self-care.
Drinking 8 glasses of water a day is a norm we can not seem to function without.
Therefore, finding a solution is worth the time, even if it’s done in stages.
There are five tips to consider when making the water switch when choosing sustainable water for hotel guests:
It will take time and will initially cost more, but the benefits are life-changing for generations to come. Keep the conversation going at all levels within the hotel. The best ideas come from within.
Attract consumers with your “better for you, better for the world” strategy. According to booking.com 67% of clients search for eco-friendly hotels and 87% of travelers worldwide state they want sustainable travel. Clearly communicate your goals, and the steps you are taking to achieve them.
Provide a reusable, and recyclable container. Encourage guests through a reward program to use a bottle more than once. If they do discard it, make it easy and obvious.
Engage hotel guests in shared values around sustainability. Consider a campaign such as Guelf University which introduced the #iamreusable container program to dramatically reduce single-use grab-and-go containers.
Source local water in reusable and recyclable containers. Buying locally dramatically reduces your carbon footprint. Consider the Hyatt Regency New Delhi that saved over 1.8 million plastic bottles and 60 tonnes of plastic waste by investing in a local glass bottled water facility.
Not every hotel has the infrastructure to build out a facility. Instead, source from a local, sustainable water company at a fraction of the cost.
Better for You in Three Ways that Matter
Introducing True North - sourced locally from the Canadian Rockies.
Plastic has passed its prime. It’s no secret - our health, vitality, and planet are being tarnished by these toxins, calling us to rethink how we consume. It’s why we created a bottle as intentional as the water it holds. Left untouched for centuries, North Water is bottled in aluminum, an infinitely recyclable material. Each vessel is crafted for 100% recyclability and harm-free hydration that you can revel in carrying.
The FACTS about True North:
1. Bottles made from infinitely recyclable aluminum.
The aluminum can is the only packaging that more than covers its recycling cost. Recycled cans require 95% less energy to make new cans. The energy saved by recycling cans is equivalent to 20 million barrels of oil or 12 billion kWh of electricity each year. The average aluminum can contains 68% total recycled content.
2. 100% Canadian Alkaline Water
A higher level of alkaline reduces acid in the body and in the bloodstream. This in turn helps improve gut health.
A note from their founder, Saawan.
"We choose the path less traveled and make a positive impact
so we can leave the planet better than we found it. THIS IS OUR NORTH."
