Marriott's® Strategy for Contributing to Environmental Conservation
With an increase in global travel comes corporate responsibility for mitigating our business impact on the natural environment. Both in our hotels and beyond, we seek to understand and act on the direct and indirect environmental impacts of our business operations.
Our goals include:
- Further reduce energy and water consumption by 25 percent per available room by 2017
- Create green construction standards for hotel developers
- Green our multi-billion dollar supply chains
- Educate associates and guests to support the environment
- Invest in innovative conservation initiatives including rainforest protection and water conservation
