Xanterra’s mission is to provide Legendary
Hospitalitywith a Softer Footprint, andwe take our
role in environmental stewardship very seriously.
Through our Ecologix program, we incorporate
sustainablepractices inall aspectsof our operations
to reduce the impacts from fossil fuel consumption
and work to educate our employees and guests on
their individual environmental responsibility. During
your stay, you can participate in this environmental
commitment by helping us protect Yellowstone in
the following ways:
Recycle:
For your convenience, we offer recycling containers
for plastic, paper, glass, cardboard, steel, and
aluminum in all of our guest rooms. Recycling bins
are also located at campgrounds and public areas
throughout the park. With help from visitors like
you, last yearwe recyclednearly twomillionpounds
of material and diverted more than 70% of our
waste from entering local landfills!
Choose Green:
When shopping in our retail gift shops, look for our
“Sustain theEarth” logowhichdesignates products
that aremore environmentally friendly. Andbe sure
to use a reusable bag and a reusablewater bottle (if
you left yours at home, we have affordable options
for you)! Our restaurants also offer a variety of
sustainable choices including locally produced
products and Rainforest Alliance certified coffee.
Conserve Energy:
When staying in the park’s guest rooms, take
advantage of the linen reuse program and be sure
to turn off lights and heat when you leave the room.
Be Green at Home:
Stewardship does not end at
the national park borders. You can help protect
Yellowstone and other national parks from the
impacts of climate change and pollution by
continuing these environmental practices at home.
