Biodiversity...




Man has been to the moon and sequenced the human genome, yet our knowledge of the world’s species and ecosystems – global biodiversity – is incomplete. The several hundred thousand plant species that exist today have evolved over millions of years.

Approximately, 2000 new plant species are discovered each year – a sure sign that there’s more to discover.

The University of Oxford’s Department of Plant Sciences is dedicated to understanding plant diversity and providing innovative and practical solutions that assist with diversity analysis and documentation.

Innovation Hotels

Indigo HotelIndigo Hotel
In 2008 IHG launched Innovation hotel, an online example of what future hotels might look like if they used green technologies. The Innovation Hotel has been created
so that you, our guests, can tell us what you like and share with us any ideas you feel are important. The site allows us to consider these ideas as we evolve how we design, build and operate more responsible hotels and feeds into the ongoing development of Green Engage.

We have identified four key areas where we can make a difference and as you navigate around the Innovation Hotel you will see our ideas catergorized according to these areas:

• Energy
• Waste
• Water
• Community

 
Take tourist information only as needed. Brochures, Maps and other tourist information may be available for you to use at your disposal but only take what you need and return the rest.

Question posted on the blog:
During your hotel visit do you take tourist materials because they're there or only what you absolutely need?
