We have now amassed a great deal of knowledge and see sustainability as a challenge and an ongoing process – globally and locally. Now days no company can avoid taking responsibility for the environment and focusing on environmental issues. Scandic lead the way and work continuously to promote both a reduction in our environmental impact, and a better environment. Scandic shall actively contribute to a sustainable society." Scandic's environmental policy since 1994. The Natural Step is an international organisation that advises companies on strategic issues concerning sustainability. Scandic works with The Natural Step and our environmental work is based on its four sustainability conditions. This hotel has been renovated with sustainable, natural and recyclable materials where possible to make the environment clean and green.We want to create a better world for our children. Since 1993 our daily work has been dominated by small and large things that contribute to a more sustainable world. We at Scandic have long been involved in water improvement initiatives. In 2005, we were one of the founders of the Stockholm Water Prize, an international accolade awarded by the Stockholm Water Foundation every year. The prize goes to a person, organisation or institution for outstanding achievement in water-related activities.We used to transport nearly four million bottles of water to our hotels. We used to sell around 1.2 million litres of water a year at our hotels. That is equivalent to 3.6 million 33 cl bottles. With our own water, we estimate that we will cut carbon emissions by 160 tonnes per year, based on our earlier volume of sales. We like statistics and record all our consumption of energy and water and our production of unsorted waste and carbon emissions.
