But for now, the fact that environmentalism is being adopted by Taiwan's hotel industry is still "hot news." In contrast to countries in Europe and North America where it has been the order of the day for years and where environmental rating mechanisms are mature, Taiwan still has a long way to go before tourism becomes a "non-smokestack industry."
然而，環保風吹進旅館業在台灣還是熱騰騰的「新聞」，相較於在歐美行之有年、各種環保評等機制成熟，台灣旅遊業距離真正的「無煙囪工業」，顯然仍有很大的努力空間。
