more about how The Hilton in the WALT DISNEY WORLD® Resort is
demonstrating their commitment to protecting Florida's environment:
The Hilton in the WALT DISNEY
WORLD® Resort uses ENERGYSTAR® appliances to conserve energy
and has implemented paper, cardboard, aluminum and steel can, magazine,
plastic, ink cartridge, kitchen grease, fluorescent lamp and soap
recycling programs to reduce waste. In addition, the property installed
low flow toilets, faucets, and showerheads as well as charcoal air
filters.
“The Hilton, located in the
WALT DISNEY WORLD® Resort, is a leader in environmental and
community stewardship,” says James Grosso, General Manager of the
Hilton in the WALT DISNEY WORLD® Resort. “While initially driven
by the rising energy costs and a heightened awareness of global
warming and its impact, the hotel and Hilton Hotels Corporation
are taking into account the triple bottom line of People, Planet,
and Profit as a measure of our success.”
