Abstract

Hotel managers in the U.S., international hotel managers, and hotelmanagement students were asked their extent of agreement with eight propositions regarding the lodging industry's relationship to environmental stewardship. International managers agreed more strongly than domestic managers that the lodging industry would be forced by public opinion, the market, or government to take more environmental actions. The international managers also considered it better for business to take environmental actions than did the domestic managers. Students in a Cornell University hotel course agreed more with the international managers than with domestic managers on the importance of environmental activities. Separating the students' responses by gender, however, revealed that women students were far more environmentally conscious than the men students.
