When’s the last time you used a phone book? To us, looking up a number in a dusty yellow tome is the equivalent of riding a horse drawn carriage across the country instead of just flying. We get all our digits from the web!
So Omni Hotel’s latest move makes so much sense. The hotel chain has decided to immediately cease providing phone books to guests at all its properties, and the company is recycling all 30,000 phone books currently in use at its hotels.
Eliminating the books will have a huge, positive environmental effect, Omni says, by saving 217,200 pounds of paper, 760,200 gallons of water and 217 barrels of oil annually. If you still need a phone number and can’t get online, just use Google’s SMS service.
