Airbnb claims homesharing more sustainable than going to a green hotel

Homesharing website airbnb has just released a report that claims staying in the rooms leased out by people on its website is much more sustainable than staying in ‘the most sustainable and energy-efficient hotels’. The study was conducted for airbnb by the Cleantech Group from February to April 2014 and based on 8,000 survey responses from airbnb hosts and hotel guests worldwide.
