INTRODUCTION
This report is an intermediate recording and assessment stage of the results for allsustainability issues included in the daily operation and management of the hotel.
It’s aim is to be used:1. For the information of the Heads of the Departments and at the annual management
follow up meeting, in order to be taken into account in the improvement measures tobe decided in the following year.
2. During the inspections of the sustainability system.3. For the renewal of the official sustainability brochure that is developed every two
years by the unit with broader use for promotion and communication inside andoutside the hotel. It has been found that both customers and tourist partners of thehotel, and suppliers and plain staff prefer for their information a brochure with lesstext and more images, shapes and, as far as possible, with simplified recording ofany information.
SUSTAINABILITY POLICIES The policies referred to in the previous report and alsoformally on the hotel website apply with the exception of the sales policy for the operation ofthe hotel, where the corresponding specifications are updated on the basis of the currentneeds for the promotion of ecolabel products, the restriction of the use of plastics until theirabolition, the strengthening of the "Sustainable F&B services", etc.
It has been understood and the hotel works towards reducing its indirect and direct footprintthat adversely affects the climate change.

1. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
1.1 WASTE MANAGEMENT (REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE)
The aim of the unit remains the effort to reduce the total amount of waste produced, toincrease the materials that are recycled, to recycle at 100% the hazardous waste and toreduce garbage that end up in the local landfill.
The non-systematic, professional organization, both of the local municipality as well ascontractors, remains a problem.

A decrease in single use plastics was achieved since 2015 and mainly from 2017 to 2018due to:
1. The elimination of the use of milk portions in all food units. It is only allowed in therooms and the beach service, for safety reasons.
2. The reduction of the plastic bags for garbage collection of the seaweeds on thebeach. A vehicle was purchased for their collection and transport.
3. The gradual replacement of tumblers and other single use articles for the Bars, thestaff, the mini club, etc. with respective paper or reusable packaging.
4. The specifications established for the replacement/ elimination of a large number ofplastic bags in housekeeping and food departments, which contributed to the firstsignificant reduction with the results of 2015, continue.
2019 - 2020 GOALSI. 20% landfill waste decreasea. Initiation of chipper shredder use for branches, and then composting them to

1.2 PREVENTION-MANAGEMENT OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS FOR AIR, SOILAND RECEIVING WATER BODY POLLUTION
The policy on eliminating dangerous chemicals for human health and the environment, andtheir replacement, where possible, continued. At the same time, emphasis was given totheir optimal management by strictly adhering to the safety, storage and use rules in allsectors. Specific training was carried out for all involved departments with separateinstructions for the head officers and their subordinates At the same time all the necessaryfirst aid and protective equipment materials were placed in all chemicals storage areas ineach department.

COMMENTS: There is a gradual decrease in the consumption of chemicals in alldepartments from 2015 onwards. The increase in foods is due to the cleaning upgrade in allthe Bars after identifying failure to comply with best practices for cleaning and disinfection.
The increase in chemical consumption in laundry from 2017 to 2018, as well as in thewashed pieces is due to changes in the Operation standards with an increase in the nightones and the quantity of clothing washed. Finally, in the maintenance it is due to thechange of the used chlorine with liquid chlorine, resulting in higher consumption for thedisinfection of the same volume of water in relation to the use of tablets and generally solidchlorine

1.4 MANAGEMENT OF WATER IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE CONSUMPTION
The main sources of water in the hotel remain the privately-owned drillings, to which twonew were added in the years 2017-18 upon legitimate permit. Despite the saving measures,the dedicated seminars for the staff and the systematic monitoring of consumptions, thetotal amount per night remains higher than the average consumption of correspondinghotels in the Mediterranean, on the basis of the international benchmarking and the relevantnational legislation.
The reasons are the continuous leaks in the underground irrigation system, which more andmore intensely presents problems due to its age. Also in 2017/18 several problems werecreated in the pools resulting to the need for frequent backwashing and water change.
In 2018 the radical treatment of these problems started with the aim to complete theimplementation of the improvement measures in 2019.

Comments on YTD differences:
Irrigation: It is the largest consumption that has started to improve in 2018. The decreaseis due to the more correct use of the water for watering based on the instructions of theagronomist, the exploitation of the tertiary treatment of the biological treatment plant andthe more immediate response in restoring the leaks.
Pools: More frequent backwash use due to the pilot year for transitioning from the manualmanagement of the pool water to the management with electronic system.
2019 - 2020 GOAL:I. 6% decrease in water use
a. Renovation of main building-construction of new pipe network in accordance with theapplicable technical provisions and construction of proper recirculating system
b. Renovation of 6 buildings in the bungalows 3000 block. Construction of a new pipenetwork in accordance with the applicable technical provisions and construction ofproper recirculating system, production of hot water through VRV Heat Recoverysystems, use of shower and taps with modern water flow specifications
c. Completion of the pools backwash project and channeling of the water to thereusable water after tertiary treatment in the biological treatment plant
d. Improvement/reconstruction of the existing irrigation system, in order to avoid thepresented leaks and optimization of its operation

1.5 SUSTAINABLE F&B POLICY
The climate crisis, the reduction of natural resources needed for the production of our food,the significant pollution of the oceans and the water sources with plastic waste andchemicals, the continuous increase in the feeding needs of the world population that isestimated to be 9 billion by 2050 and the phenomenon of too much wasted food in Westernsocieties with increasing health problems and the parallel malnutrition of the population ofThird Countries, are issues taken into account and incorporated in the tourism developmentpolicy, the World Tourism Organization.
In accordance with the 17 objectives for the sustainable development of the new agenda ofthe United Nations 30/2015, the creation of more sustainable food systems and foodservices could play a positive role in addressing these challenges.
The Administration and the F&B Group of Neptune Hotels, taking into consideration theabove objectives and intending to continually improve the viability performance of theresort, decided to cooperate with the people of the resort, the suppliers and their clients, toimplement step-by-step a sustainable food policy with corresponding function.
In practice we...
Buy less:- Vegetables grown in heated greenhouses (high energy consumption)- Food that include air or long distance freight transport (energy-consuming andincreasing CO2 emissions)- imported beef, deep-sea fish such as cod, large shrimps, non-sustainable fisheryproducts or fished using non-sustainable practices.
We buy more:- Local food (in their majority they meet safety and environmental standards)- Traditional local products which help protect the local gastronomic culture and supportthe traditional producers- Seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables (fully riped and complete in vitamins and taste)
We implemented the following:- Increase in vegetarian/vegan/local dishes based on seafood against dishes based onmeat products, especially those with imported use such as beef/pork meat in therestaurant main buffet
SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT REPORTNeptune Hotels Resort, Convention Centre & Spa2017 - 2018

- Use of unique Greek products produced by specific producers in specific areas andtheir promotion, in particular, in the weekly menu of the Greek tavern- Promotion, with cost increase, of authentic Greek flavors and products from smallproducers from all over Greece, in the Greek breakfast buffet and in dedicated eveningsin the restaurant
