Keeping Our Island Green

Grenada fruits and productsGrenada fruits and products Living on this small, beautiful island has given us many reasons to become more responsible for our environment.
Practical considerations like the threat of no water or a power failure just at dusk have had an influence, but it's easy to form new ideals, as there are no recycling plants on an island with just 100,000 inhabitants.

It is up to us to find ways to make Almost Paradise as environmentally friendly as possible.

Here are some of the systems we use...

Renewable resources Environmentally friendly products Natural products
SOLAR ENERGY
for lighting, fans, music 		BIODEGRADABLE
detergents, garbage bags 		ORGANIC fruit, herbs, cheese, cocoa for restaurant use
RAINWATER
for laundry, toilets, showers, garden, etc.

 REUSABLE PACKAGING

WIND

 CLEANING
with hot water, vinegar, baking soda
SUNSHINE

We are always looking for new ways to preserve our natural environment, and we encourage our guests to participate and contribute their own ideas. After all, we're still only ALMOST ECO!
