Towards sustainable architecture and urbanism through responsible tourism and the realization of zero-emission hotels
In the tourism sector, particularly in hotels, generally much more resources per guest are consumed than in residential buildings per inhabitant. Tourists generally want to enjoy free time and don’t want primarily save resources. Accordingly the development and application of resource efficient and convenient so-called “zeroemission” concepts in hotels, can contribute to the saving of resources, such as energy, fresh water and nutrients. Good practice examples can function as role models for integrated urban resource management and contribute to increased awareness and distribution of knowledge regarding such systems. This paper discusses new decentralized approaches for the integrated management of resources, which can be applied in the tourism sector as well as in urban renewal projects and new urban developments. Recent developments in the cities Hamburg and Berlin (Germany, EU) are used as examples to discuss the potentialities for integrated system - and zero emission approaches related to urban tourism. ; Peer Reviewed
