The Hellenic Society for the Protection of Nature (EEPF) which represents the Foundation for Environmental Education’s (FEE) Green Key standard in Greece, organized an annual meeting of national representatives at Athens’ Electra Palace Hotel last month.
During the meeting, EEPF announced it expects the number of facilities gaining Greek Key certification in Greece to reach 330 this year.
The Green Key label is open to hotels, hostels, small accommodations, campsites, restaurants and attractions.
The Green Key award is the leading standard for excellence in the field of environmental responsibility and sustainable operation within the tourism industry. This prestigious ecolabel represents a commitment by businesses that their premises adhere to the strict criteria set by the Foundation for Environmental Education. A Green Key stands for the promise to its guests that by opting to stay with the Green Key establishment, they are helping to make a difference on an environmental level. The high environmental standards expected of these hotels are maintained through rigorous documentation and frequent audits. Green Key is eligible for hotels, hostels, small accommodations, campsites, restaurants and attractions.
