Its surprising perhaps that this didn’t get more attention. I only stumbled across it on YouTube by accident.
During the UN Climate Change Conference, the EnviroMedia team went out and videotaped the waste disposal practices at Bali hotels & resorts. They claimed that only 5% of Bali hotels are properly disposing of their waste, recycling and composting as they claim.
The InterContinental Resort in Bali emerged as the star in this video, being the only one shows properly sorting, recycling and disposing of waste. According to to Enviromedia, the Four Seasons, InterContinental and Ritz Carlton are among only a handful of resorts that are doing it right when it comes to solid waste disposal and recycling in Bali. The rest of the “rubbish?, according to Olivier Pouillon of Jimbaran Lestari (recycling, composting and waste disposal company) is that it ends up being scattered about the island or illegally dumped in environmentally sensitive mangroves in tropic wetlands.
