There are many reasons why people prefer or even need to stay in chemical free, green cleaned places while they travel, illustrating why eco-friendly accommodations are essential. Going green has become the hip thing to do in many circles and areas of the world including short term rentals. As people become more aware of how modern chemicals have a negative impact on the environment they have begun to press for healthier alternatives for the benefit of the soil, water, marine life, and humanity in general.
Being in the hospitality business, our properties are cleaned multiple times a week and, therefore, use a lot more of these chemicals than the average household which finds its way into our water, lakes, animals and even has been found in human mother’s breast milk. (Siegle)
It’s important to understand not only how much our environment is adversely affected by synthetic chemicals but also that going green is for the care and welfare of our cleaners who are around these chemicals much more frequently than the average person.
While some may not feel the effects now, what will be the long term adverse effects with prolonged exposure? However, there is a large and drastically growing number of people in our population, 39% of Americans as of 2016, who have MCS (Multiple Chemical Sensitivities) that require Green Stay accommodations to avoid becoming ill while traveling.
