Employee & Guest Engagement
 By educating and engaging its employees and guests to support the environment through their everyday actions at home, while at work and on travel, Marriott can have a lasting impact. Just think about the opportunities to get the message out: 300,000 employees at 3,000 managed and franchised hotels worldwide, not to mention the millions of guests who visit our hotels each year. Most notably, Marriott is inviting guests to join in its efforts to help combat climate change. Guests can “Green Their Hotel Stay” and offset their carbon footprint by making a donation to a rainforest preservation fund, to which the company has already committed $2 million. To learn more, visit Help Save the Rainforest. Last year, Marriott launched the Spirit to Preserve the Rainforest promotion. For meetings or stays of 10 rooms or more booked during select dates, participating Marriott hotels around the world will contribute funds equal to five percent of the total cost of the group’s guest rooms to protect the rainforest. For more information, visit Green Meetings. For meeting planners, Marriott has introduced “Eco-Events,” a menu of eco-friendly products and services, including recycle bins in meeting rooms, pens and notepads made from recycled material, organic flowers, linen-less tables, reusable name tags and leftover food donations.
