BLUE LAGOON VILLAGE HAS MANAGED THROUGH CONTINUOUS

EFFORTS NOT TO INCREASE THE OVERALL CONSUMPTION OF

WATER DESPITE THE CHANGE OF GREECE TEMPERATURE WITHOUT

COMPROMISING THE QUALITY OF SERVICE FOR THE GUESTS AND

ENSURING THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THE GUESTS.

FROM MAY TO OCTOBER, THE CONSUMPTION OF MARMALADE WAS 1320 KILOS.

TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THAT AN INDIVIDUAL PORTION OF MARMALADE HAS 20GR MARMALADE.

WE WOULD HAVE USED 51.750 PORTIONS.EACH INDIVIDUAL MARMALADE PACK CONSISTS 1GR OF PLASTIC SO THE AVERAGE OF PLASTIC THAT WE

SAVE IS 51,75KG OF PLASTIC.

THE SUMMER SEASON LASTS ON AVERAGE 180 DAYS.EACH ONE-USE PLASTIC GLASS/CUP CONSISTS 1GR OF PLASTIC.IF 1450 GUESTS CONSUME ON AVERAGE 5 DRINKS PER DAY FOR THE DURATION OF THE SEASON THAT MEANS THAT WE

WOULD HAVE USE 1350 KG OF PLASTIC. INSTEAD WE DECIDED ON CHOOSING REUSABLE PLASTIC GLASSES/CUPS ALL AROUND THE BARS. THE NUMBER OF

REUSABLE PLASTIC GLASSES/ CUPS WE PURCHASE IS 10.000

IN OUR ATTEMPT TO SUPPORT THE GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT, WE ARE TRYING TO REDUCE THE USAGE OF
