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. Now we see good environmental, economic and social considerations feature in our everyday decisions. This has produced results, and we have become the trend-setters in our industry. Scandic is proof that you can be progressive in these areas and achieve even better profitability along the way. Scandic has been consciously tackling environmental issues since 1994. Our aim is to contribute to a socially and ecologically sustainable society. We have come a long way over the years. We have over 100 Swan ecolabelled hotels. In 2007 we announced our target of halving fossil carbon dioxide emissions by 2011 and ensuring that our activities have zero fossil CO2 emissions by 2025.

Scandic Backadal is situated in Gothenburg, in the region of Vastra Gotaland of Sweden . This specific country, with respect to its size, is an example to follow regarding its global ecological policies .
While the rest of the world deals with continuously fluctuating oil prices, Sweden has decided to make things a little easier for the country and its people by making a plan to phase out the use of fossil fuels by 2020; however, these efforts didn’t just begin. The change really started in the 1980s during the oil crisis. Efforts towards this new 2020 goal have already started and 28% of the energy and resources used in Sweden are renewable and eco-friendly. The country has really focused on the use of hydropower, nuclear power, and wind power to provide electricity and other necessities throughout Sweden . Gothenburg more particularly is a city that has a low rate of investment on the part of its local population regarding the establishment of yet simple measures that could reduce some of the systemic problems of polution .
