Belterra: Leading the Sustainable Change

One of the hottest topics in every industry is how businesses can best support their local economy while operating an environmentally sustainable business. At Belterra Casino Resort, sustainability is a top priority. From how the hotel is operated to the light bulbs, Belterra Casino Resort in Vevay, IN has made huge initiatives toward conservation on behalf of team members and guests. Here are some of the efforts Belterra has made to become greener:

Energy & Air Quality

• LED light bulbs are used on the Property. • Energy efficient lighting and timers used in the garage and outdoor area. • All vehicles should be parked with ignition off while passengers or items are being loaded/unloaded.
