GREEN YOUR HOTEL STAY ASSISTS AMAZON RAINFORESTS

In February this year, Marriott launched “Green Your Hotel Stay” programme. When a guests book a room on Marriott.com webiste or visit’s Green-Brazilian Rainforest, they can help protect the 1.4 million acres of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. Guests are now able to offset the carbon generated during their stay for as little as US$10, or US$1/day for 10 days. Marriott has been in the process of greening its $10 billion supply chain, replacing its plastic key cards, towels, pens, toilet paper, pillows, and paint with more environmentally-friendly options.
