More than 70,000 biodegradable cards will be issued and used in area hotels. \u201cSustainable Cards in hotels are really the tip of the iceberg,\u201d Greg Hartmann, president &amp; CEO of Sustainable Cards told CPN. \u201cOur goal is to be the leading provider of eco-friendly cards for all purposes&#8211;commercial property entry cards, gift cards, membership cards and the like. The bottom line is doing whatever we can to reduce the vast amount of waste generated by non-recyclable plastic in order to protect the environment.\u201d The cards will be a donation.    The sustainable cards will have a picture of the Denver 2008 Host Committee logo on them. Wooden keycards have been used for almost ten years in Europe. With this move from plastic to wood, the resort industry in the United States can reduce plastic waste by 1,300 tons annually&#8211;which is  the amount of  waste generated by traditional hotel key cards in this country each year. Currently, a hotel with approximately 200 rooms will discard about 12,000 plastic keys each year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the Democratic National Convention in Denver this year, &#8220;green&#8221; key cards (pictured) will be used in Denver hotel rooms&#8211;their debut in this country, according to Sustainable Cards and their manufacturer CPI Card Group.
