The Fairmont Vancouver Airport, Vancouver, Canada
This hotel was built in 1999 and incorporates several energy efficient features in its design. Energy efficient, triple-glazed windows eliminate airport noise. A glass curtain wall on the exterior reduces internal energy consumption and the penetration of ultraviolet rays and sound.
Each guest room's lighting and heating is governed by an energy management system that shuts down when the guest leaves the room. When they return, all functions resume at the settings selected by the guest. On check-out, room temperature reverts to a standard setting and the lights are shut off automatically, cutting energy use by 35 percent.
All 42 rooms on the 11th floor are hypo-allergenic or low allergen content at no extra charge. "This is a direct result of increasing guest demand," says Francis Parkinson, General Manager. "The number of requests for hypo-allergenic pillows, duvets and bedspreads has been increasing." Filtration systems purify the air and a central vacuum system dramatically reduces dust.

Green Conference Planning at Fairmont Hotels & Resorts
Fairmont Hotels & Resorts pioneered the concept of environmentally friendly conference programme in 1998. Originally developed at Chateau Lake Louise, a landmark Canadian icon set within a UNESCO-protected World Heritage Site, the aim was to help meeting organizers hold conferences which produced less waste. Called 'Eco - meet', the programme educates and informs delegates about environmental and heritage topics while fulfilling personal and organizational environmental mandates. It comprises four key components:
* Eco-service, which provices disposable- free food and beverage services, 100 percent recycled note pads, biodegradable corn pens, and recycling stations in meeting rooms. Left-over food is donated to food banks.
* Eco-accommodation, including in-room information, recycling bins, optional sheet and towel replacement, energy-efficient lighting, biodegradable soap, recyclable amenities and water saving shower heads and tap aerators.
* Eco-cuisine, providing menus which incorporate local, seasonal, and organically grown foods wherever possible.
* Eco-programming, providing activities and guest speakers to complement the eco-meet experience. This can take the form of a key note address to a full day experience.
So far, Eco-meet has been implemented at six Fairmont properties and is being rolled out on a property-by- property basis throughout the company. Contact: Lyle Thompson: lyle.thompson@fairmont.com
