| Abstract: | Most sectors of industry face pressure to improve their environmental performance. A wide range of publications offer guidance and advice on the actions hoteliers may take to alter their practices and thus address environmental issues. The lack of operationalisation in environmental principles, implicit within many codes of practice, is seeing the emergence of a gap between theory and practice. This study explores the nature of this gap. A case study is presented based on a detailed survey of environmental management practices in 42 London hotels. |
