I usually launch the used towels into the bathtub or under the sink. I want clean ones!

I'm happy to recycle. I almost always pick the hybrid off the Exec Aisle if it's there. I drink lots of tap water. I always turn off lights and appliances when I leave a hotel room (although I get extremely annoyed if they have one of those systems that disables the A/C when I leave). But I still want clean towels.

We are opposite. I don't consider myself very green but I'll do the easy stuff. I don't need fresh towels, I don't need fresh linens. I liked the idea someone posted a while back where you could refuse maid service for points....that would be perfect for me!

I don't recycle at home or on the road.

I do drink filtered tap (I use to be a big bottle guy....like multiple cases/week but that has changed).
