Introduction Why We Produced This Report

At Hotel Mocking Bird Hill we believe in continual improvement of our performance so that we can have an increasingly positive effect on the environment, society, and the economy.

In writing the 2002/2003 Sustainability Report it quickly became evident that there was much more that we can do in the future to improve the performance of our operations and the co-operation with our community. We are in a learning process as we seek to improve As we go along we become aware of the significance of keeping formal records of our activities. Putting this report together has shown us the weaknesses in our record keeping- we do not have available a lot of the information required. In the future we will remedy this by creating new records of our impact on the environment.

We strongly believe in a commitment of excellence and the creation of the Sustainability Report is one way in which we can make continual strides towards improvement.

About this Report
This report focuses mainly on the calendar years for 2002/2003. As this is our first attempt at creating a Sustainability Report, some information will not be available. To the best of our ability we will provide the records of our energy and water usage. The numbers for our energy use are those from our provider, Jamaica Public Service Co., and our water is from the public water service. We also monitor water used from rainwater harvesting.
