Climate neutral hotels
Our BIO HOTELS are pioneers when it comes to climate protection in tourism
That is why we would like to invite you to save CO2 together with us - on vacation and in everyday life. Because only together can we manage to change something in the long term. We demand a sensible environmental protection policy and global climate justice, but we would also like to actively contribute to it. Together with you. As the most sustainable hotel association, our BIO HOTELS are already well on their way. Because in many of our houses you can already enjoy climate-neutral holidays and meetings!
Emissions balance of our BIO HOTELS
Our BIO HOTELS have been subject to a CO2 balance for ten years. This is now managed by the sustainability consulting company Fokus Zukunft GmbH & Co. KG. carried out. The result is impressive. Almost half of our BIO HOTELS are already climate-neutral, a handful are even climate-positive. But what does it mean? And why is that so important? We asked Marion Schuster from Fokus Zukunft: “The consequences of global warming are becoming more and more noticeable and the pressure on politics and companies is increasing. There is now worldwide agreement that we urgently need to counteract man-made climate change. Success in reducing emissions cannot be achieved solely through the political framework or through a change in the purchasing behavior of consumers, but depends to a large extent on the voluntary and consistent action of the economy in the industrialized countries. "
Since this of course also includes hotels, our BIO HOTELS are happy to meet their responsibility. The underlying principle is actually quite simple: First, the hotel has to have its carbon footprint calculated. This means that all CO2 emissions from hotel operations are recorded on the basis of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and summarized in an emissions balance by our partner Focus Future. The result is the remaining CO2 emissions, i.e. the CO2 footprint of the respective company. This can then be compensated for.

"On the Green Fence" - a podcast of the Deutsche Welle
At the beginning of May 2021, Neil King from the podcast "On the Green Fence" visited our BIO HOTEL Eggensberger in Füssen. Neil King talked with hotelier Andreas Eggensberger about the problems of mass tourism, the impact on the climate and how our BIO HOTELS as true pioneers of sustainable tourism prepare the way for climate-friendly hotel stays: by reducing energy consumption, exclusive use of renewable energy, reduced meat consumption and much more.
„Offsetting ist only an option for us, after CO2 has been saved actively by increasing efficiency, by renouncing brown coal electricity or other measures.“ - Andreas Eggensberger, BIO HOTEL Eggensberger
