Jasper Hearts Wren Sustainability Actions

Dark sky and energy measures

Jasper National Park is the world’s largest accessible dark sky preserve in the world. Protecting our night sky from light pollution is extremely important to us which is why we have taken the following actions to reduce our energy consumption: We have converted all light fixtures on property to energy efficient bulbs. Dining outlets host candle-lit dining experiences every Earth Hour and Earth Day, and we encourage all our guests to remain energy-conscious at home and in the workplace throughout the year through the Power Down Campaign.

Food waste monitoring

We’ve partnered with Orbisk, an AI-powered food waste monitoring system. Using phot recognition, Orbisk tracks what’s discarded in the kitchen and provides insights to cut waste before it happens.

Sustainable cuisine practices

Our culinary philosophy emphasizes local and seasonal ingredients, reducing transport emissions and supporting nearby suppliers. We are committed to ethical sourcing – we do not source any threatened or endangered species, and all of our eggs come from free-range chickens. In addition to sourcing an increasing amount of local Albertan food and only serving OceanWise Certified fish to prevent overfishing of at-risk species, Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge has increased its growing capacity in the resort’s greenhouse to help reduce food sourcing costs and carbon emissions related to transportation.

FireSmart certification

Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge and its ownership group have identified and invested significant capital resources to remove major fire hazards around the entire property. Staff communities have also banded together to conduct annual property and shoreline clean-ups to keep the property safe for wildlife and guests. The resort actively participates in the FireSmart Safe Neighbourhood Program. As a result of these efforts, the Lodge is proud to be the first-ever staff community to be certified by FireSmart Canada.

Single-use plastic reduction

Accor acknowledged this issue and all properties have eliminated all non-essential single-use plastic items from the guest experience in 2022. Now, any guest staying at an Accor property can be at ease knowing that their stay does not generate unnecessary plastic waste.

Water treatment and reuse

Our water begins its journey in the glacier above Maligne Lake. The water is naturally filtered through a series of underground canals called the Karsdt system and eventually enters into Lac Beauvert. From there, our onsite water treatment plant draws the water directly from the lake and filters it to the highest standards before pumping it across the property for guests and staff to enjoy.
