Environmental Sustainability AT GORUKANA

Areas rich in biodiversity are indeed often popular tourist destinations. However, it’s crucial that we approach these delicate ecosystems with the utmost care and responsibility. By treading lightly and minimizing our impact, we can help preserve the natural balance of these environments, protecting the diverse array of plants, animals, and habitats that call them home.

At Gorukana Eco Wellness Centre, we wholeheartedly embrace this ethos. We welcome environmentally conscious travellers who share our commitment to fostering a harmonious coexistence with nature. Through responsible operations and thoughtful growth, we strive not only to minimize our ecological footprint but also to enhance and enrich our natural surroundings

Our centre provides guest with an opportunity to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature while respecting and preserving it. Through sustainable practices and mindful stewardship, we endeavour to create an environment where both people and the planet can thrive in harmony.

Gorukana is committed to sustainability sustainable practices, and we incentivize our guests to join us in our efforts to minimize our environmental footprint. Here’s how we promote:

• Tree Planting Initiative: Guests are encouraged to participate in our tree planting program, contributing to the preservation of local flora.
• Dimly Lit Exterior Lights: We minimize light pollution by using dimly lit exterior lights, reducing their impact on wildlife and ecosystems.
• Energy-Efficient LED Lighting: Throughout our premises, we use energy-efficient LED lights to minimize electricity consumption.
• Organic Waste Management: Kitchen organic waste is converted into nutrient-rich vermicompost on-site, supporting our organic farming practices.
• Food Waste Reduction: We compost food waste on-site to minimize landfill contribution, while guests are encouraged to minimize food waste from their plates.
• Plastic-Free Initiatives: We have eliminated single-use plastic water bottles, replaced miniature amenity bottles with soap dispensers, and encourage guests to carry their own dental kits to reduce single-use items. Guests are requested to responsibly dispose of any plastic or glass bottles they bring onto the premises.
• Waste Management: Steps have been taken to eliminate single-use plastics throughout our property, and guests are asked to responsibly dispose of any plastic or glass bottles they bring onto the premises.

These sustainability incentives reflect our commitment to preserving the environment and promoting responsible tourism practices. We invite our guests to join us in creating a more sustainable future for generations to come.
