			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From <a href="http://www.greenrightnow.com" target="_blank">Green Right Now</a></p>
<p>Want to stay<a href="http://www.greenrightnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/avalon-hotel.jpg"><img class="alignleft alignnone size-medium wp-image-1634" style="margin: 4px; float: left;" title="avalon-hotel" src="http://www.greenrightnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/avalon-hotel-228x300.jpg" alt="" width="114" height="151" /></a> at a verifiably green hotel for your next vacation? Soon you’ll be able to choose from among dozens of hotel and resort projects, in various stages of construction or remodeling, that have registered with the US Green Building Council, aiming to achieve silver, gold or platinum LEED certification.</p>
<p>But so far only a handful of resorts, hotels and lodges, 13 at last count, have completed the LEED certification process. These get-aways, which include upscale, urban hotels; trendy spas and woodsy lodges, have met the LEED standards, which requires that building projects consider the environment in how they locate their structures; choose materials with a lighter environmental impact; recycle or reduce construction waste, and conserve energy and water.</p>

<p>**LEED certification of building projects differs from the certification by the<a href="http://www.greenhotels.com/index.htm" target="_blank"> Green Hotels Association</a>. While LEED focuses on construction and energy consumption; the GRE, which also looks at energy conservation, more closely analyzes daily operations, giving points for hotels that use bulk soaps, low-toxic cleaners, natural pesticides and less food packaging.</p>
