Assume that you are writing about green hotels and eco-friendly meetings. You have access to the following word-for-word passages from two sources. These passages will be the basis of the exercises.

Stewart, J. (2012). The greening of hotels. New York: Williams-Anderson Group.

Most hotel executives have recognized that the demand for greener hotels has reached a tipping point. They expect a quickly accelerating demand for greening in all dimensions of hotels: energy usage, carbon emission, impact on local environments, and water consumption. As one executive told me, "The current operations model simply won't work any longer. We've got to adapt to shifting demands, and do it within three to five years. Or, we're toast." (from page 14)

Mendez, E. (2011). Marketing eco-friendly meetings. San Francisco: Finch & Sons Publishing.

Our research shows that 20 percent of conference attendees expect eco-friendly meetings. But, that doesn't tell the story, and any convention center, hotel, or other conference host that thinks the demand for green conferences will not become a significant share of the market is delusional. From our research, here are the statistics that matter most: 75 percent of conference planners say their employers demand more eco-friendly meetings to reach CSR initiatives, and 60 percent of conference planners now believe eco-friendly conferences cost less. (from page 3)
