the hotel industry is becoming increasingly more competitive and evolving concerns for the environment protection are evident in the marketplace. Consumers are realizing that their purchasing behaviors have direct impact on many ecological problems (Laroche, Bergeron, & Barbaro-Forleo, 2001). The travelers are expecting hotels to pay greater attention to the environmental concerns and to operate in an eco-friendly way (Millar & Baloglu, 2011) which has translated into a movement for green management. Various hotel companies have changed their organizational structure/culture to be more environmentally responsible and have incorporated some of the green practices in their daily operations, such as recycling and/or installing energy-efficient lighting (Millar & Baloglu,2011).
