Building social entrepreneurship for the hotel industry by promoting environmental education

摘要

Purpose - Social entrepreneurship by hoteliers in "going green" promotes a better future for the environment and arguably also for the human race. However, going green potentially increases costs for both hoteliers and their guests. Environmental education (EE) is possibly a useful vehicle for the hotel industry to gain support for greener operations. This research aims to investigate the potential impact of EE on increasing customer uptake of green hotels.
