Hong Kong’s Regal iClub Hotel has claimed it will be the first hotel in Hong Kong to go carbon neutral.

The hotel, which belongs to Regal Hotels International, said it is working with energy management solution provider Carbon Care Asia to develop a carbon neutral program.
 
Measures under the program would include calculating its carbon footprint according to global standards, and offsetting its carbon emissions from the hotel’s use of electricity, gas, and water, the hotel said.
 
“Carbon neutral is fast becoming the most desirable new ways of living. A growing number of global brands, corporations and organizations, for example, the Vatican City, World Bank and HSBC, have attained carbon neutral status through measuring, reducing and offsetting their footprints. Carbon Care Asia Co is honoured to be a partner in this meaningful project and we hope to see many more organizations and business leaders to join the carbon leadership rank, as demonstrated by the Regal iClub Hotel,” said Carbon Care Asia Co executive director Dr Trini Leung.
