Spa Industry News: Prominent Spas Work Hard to Go Green

The spa industry is becoming an important leader in the fight against global warming by making changes to the way spas are run in order to help save the environment. The idea of going green is one that fits perfectly with the vision that spas around the world have had for centuries.

In order to spread the word of green spa living, several prominent spas around the country have formed the Green Spa Network. This grassroots, not-for-profit trade organization has started out by creating seed spas, ones that are committed to developing and sustaining environmentally friendly business practices. To date there are nine spas in the seed program and their main focus is to find the greenest ways to run their spas while also remaining profitable and providing their clients with the best services available.

In addition the Green Spa Network is gathering as much information as they can for their Green Spa Toolkit, which will provide other spa owners the tools and information they need to turn their spas green too. They are also putting together an annual green spa conference that will serve as a networking and information exchange opportunity for those interested in going green.
