How effective are eco hotels in Thailand at implementing sustainable practices, and what impact do these practices have on the local environment?
Started Mar. 6, 2025
Abstract or project description
This literature review (maybe experimental) explores the effectiveness of eco hotels in Thailand at implementing sustainable practices and assesses the environmental impact of these initiatives. As tourism continues to be a major contributor to Thailand’s economy, the hospitality sector faces growing pressure to adopt environmentally responsible operations. This project aims to analyze existing research on how eco hotels in Thailand manage energy consumption, water usage, waste reduction, and other sustainability measures.
I will analyze and evaluate how these hotels influence the local environment, such as reduced pollution, conservation of natural resources, and biodiversity protection. Additionally, the review will consider the role of government policies, certification programs, and consumer expectations in shaping these hotels' sustainability efforts. I will look over articles online, send emails, and check up with local hotels in the area to try and find out their influence.
Ultimately, this study seeks to identify the strengths and limitations of current eco hotel practices in Thailand and provide insight into how the industry can further contribute to sustainable development goals.
