• Try to avoid a layover and choose a greener airline if you are able.
• Take advantage of electronic check-in at the airport and hotels.
• Ask for materials to be sent electronically.

• Turn the lights off when you leave your hotel rooms.
• Bring and re-use a water bottle.

• Global nonprofit Clean the World collects and sanitizes soap, shampoos and other hygiene products for distribution to communities in need in the United States and abroad. The group's goal is to help prevent diseases caused by inadequate supplies of hygiene products. Caesars and its housekeeping staff have recycled more than 61,000 pounds of lightly used soap and 43,000 pounds of bottled amenities on behalf of Clean the World. These efforts have contributed to human health while simultaneously keeping more than 100,000 pounds of solid and liquid waste from going to landfill.
• The Bally's & Paris Las Vegas combined CodeGreen team pursued an intensive mapping and walk-through process to identify new opportunities to eliminate or reduce waste. This led to a 50 percent increase in materials recovered for recycling and a 33 percent reduction in trash.
• New filtration and bottling systems that produce premium mineral water on-site. Packaged   and served in reusable glass bottles, and sold as an environmentally friendly alternative, the mineral water has greatly reduced the volume of glass water bottles that go to recycling. Served in eight Bally's and Paris Las Vegas restaurants and another 20 Caesars restaurants across the United States, the water now outsells premium brands. An additional benefit is reduced shipping, which has cut carbon emissions by an estimated 25,000 pounds a week.
• For three years running, Caesars has been a sponsor of Dartmouth College's Big Green Bus, which runs on waste vegetable oil (WVO). Operated by 13 Dartmouth students, the converted Greyhound bus tours the country providing hands-on environmental education to Boys & Girls Club participants. The bus stops at five Caesars resorts for demonstrations and to refuel. Caesars' silver level sponsorship supports the costs of operating this "classroom on wheels," with its state-of-art sensors and tools designed to help individuals understand the inner workings of the bus and the importance of practicing conservation at home
• Management provides produce and baked goods at cost to help draw thousands of employees to Caesars' Green Farmers Markets, which offer environmental education and free CFL light bulbs. Volunteer carpenters, gardeners, and seamstresses turn excess and recycled materials into everything from gardening tables to purses and tote bags to be sold at the employee events. The Green Farmers Markets raise money for and awareness of environmentally sustainable activities, employees in need and community organizations.
