Green Way, established in 1998, was intended to reflect a responsible attitude toward the environment, and all the beautiful gifts which it holds for us, as well as to provide a safe place for people with environmental sensitivities.
These gifts, it would seem have become so commonplace to us, that we have forgotten that they need attention, and special care. Here at the Green Way Claymore Inn & Antigonish Conference Center, we have implemented the following policies to that end:
We have six environmentally clean rooms; each with filtered water, and air, a spider plant to draw the carbon dioxide out of the air and replace it with oxygen, and refrigerator to keep medication, etc. in. All the linens are washed in environmental detergents, and the room is cleaned with environmental non-toxic cleaners. These rooms are sold at an additional $10 over our regular rack rates.
Throughout all our guest rooms, we provide unscented shampoo and body wash, recycle bins, and a recycle towel program. Housekeeping do not use any harsh laundry detergents, or cleaning products.
Staff do not wear scented products.
Recycle bins for papers, bottles, and cans can be found in the Lobby.
We use all filtered water in the Dining and Banquet Rooms. All the linens have been removed from the Dining Room and we no longer use extra doilies, and garnishes to decorate the plates. When preparing the menu, consideration was given to people with food sensitivities.
