Greenhouse effect leads to gradual increase in global temperatures and accelerate the dissolution of the iceberg.Global government puts forward strategies and measures and the major industry will also respond.Since a great deal of carbon dioxide is the main reason leading to the greenhouse effect, the global hotel industry thus focus on building low-carbon policies.Owing to the increasing tourism activities and associated lodging facilities demand, the local governments in Hong Kong and Zhejiang have launched lowcarbon practice to mitigate the environmental impact created by the industry.The Hong Kong Government Environmental Protection Department and the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department have stepped up environmental effort by creating a portal to facilitate enterprises to calculate and report the carbon emission.The Zhejiang Tourism Bureau has circulated the one hundred low-carbon operating measures as reference for restaurants and hotels to design or reinforce their environmental conservation systems.Other than highlighting the two approaches, the paper has a review of the environmental actions in the past and suggests the approaches,directives and actions to be undertaken by the local tourism colleges and industry associations to match with the government initiated low-carbon campaigns.
