- Shuttles to and from the airport will be provided to minimize the use of gasoline for transportation

At the Four Seasons Resort:
- Comprehensive recycling program throughout the Resort
- Significant reduction in paper use by modifying reports and using electronic distribution when possible
- Discarded linens and towels are recycled as rags within the Resort or donated to local charities
- Purchasing program used to seek out products which are regionally produced, organic, include recycled materials, and are delivered with no or minimal packaging
- The Resort is participating in a pilot program to recycle food waste from our kitchens which is used as compost materials
- Guest Room/Residence Eco-Luxury program which offers guest choice to re-use linens and recycle, in return we donate $5 per room night to the Grand Teton National Park Foundation
- In all guest rooms, a pitcher of fresh tap water is placed bedside for turn down service in lieu of bottle water
- The implementation of Ozone technology for all laundry services, which relies upon extremely cold water to clean the Resort's linens, dramatically reducing hot water use and chemicals required
- The Resort provides a free bus pass to every employee and encourages carpooling and biking to work
- The Resort offsets its' energy consumption by the purchase of 10% wind-generated energy
- Energy efficient HVAC system in use
- CFL light bulbs and motion sensors are used where possible
Our intent is to be as energy efficient as possible for the betterment of our attendees, the community, and the world. If you have further ideas/suggestions on how we might do more please contact us at info@minellc.com.
