Ksl Resorts New Sustainability Program

Irvine, CA – KSL Resorts has launched a new sustainability program – “On Purpose” – to be rolled out amongst its portfolio of 11 destination hotels and resorts, including Camelback Resort in the Pocono Mountains, PA. While the name and framework are new, the program reinforces existing companywide sustainability initiatives.

“All of our properties have increasingly adapted green practices in recent years – making dramatic improvements – but we are thrilled to make it official by introducing this forward-thinking new platform,” said Ian Pullan, EVP of asset management west, who is leading the charge. “Focused on reducing KSL Resorts’ overall carbon footprint, On Purpose was carefully designed to drive positive change and reduce carbon emissions –by both guests and staff – via four core initiatives.”

Additionally, said Pullan, each KSL Resorts property will form – or has formed – an on-site sustainability committee and will identify a suitable local nature conservation partner. While the official On Purpose program is new, sustainability efforts have been underway at all KSL Resorts properties for several years.
