Want to travel while also doing something good for the planet? On April 22,
hundreds of thousands of people across the globe will celebrate the
36th annual Earth Day, pitching in to clean up local roads and
waterways, abandoned parking lots and city parks in what has become an
annual rite of spring.
Hyatt
Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa shows their commitment to the
environment and their local communities with programs that ranged from a
naturalist-led beach clean to shutting the lights in all unoccupied
rooms, and employees turned out to volunteer at dozens of local green
efforts. These activities take place throughout the year.
In honor of Earth Day, Friday, April 22nd, the Hyatt Regency Hotel and Spa in Monterey is offering the following promotions:
-The hotel will give out a tree-in-a-box kit to guests who check in on April 22nd. This will be a kit to grow your own tree at home! #TravelGreen #InAHyattWorld
-TusCA
Ristorante will be featuring menu specials appealing to locavores,
vegetarians, and vegans using both locally grown and organic
ingredients. In addition the hotel will offer specials in sustainable
wine.

In
addition, Hyatt has an ongoing commitment to green meetings. At Hyatt,
we have the same commitment to caring for the earth as we do to caring
for our guests. Follow these 10 steps to reduce the environmental
impact of your.
1.
Plan Ahead. Surprises are lots of fun, but not for meetings. Provide us
with your meeting info and event orders 10 days in advance to reduce
the use of last minute resources.
2.
Please Recycle. Commit to using the recycling bins provided by the
hotel at all functions, meetings, offices and guest rooms – making it
easy to be green. Recycling services vary by property.
3.
Print local. It's better to print it there than bring it there. It's
even better to print on recycled paper – we're here to help you
coordinate all your printing needs and will provide you with a list of
recommended environmental printing services.
4.
Ship Less. Shipping meeting materials wastes fuel, paper, plastic,
energy and water. So, no more than one pallet of materials can be
shipped to the hotel for each 100 rooms occupied and no more than ½
pallet going home.
5.
Take what you need. Rather than handing out pens and note pads, place
all meeting materials in a central location so meeting attendees can
take only what they need.
6.
Ban the bottle. Drinking lots of water is good. But not from a plastic
bottle. Instead, use reusable bottles and refill at conveniently located
filtered water stations.
7.
Waste not. While we're at it, let's eliminate the use of other
disposable products at meetings. Exceptions can be made for Boxed meals
and poolside service.
8.
Keep it comfy by setting reasonable meeting temperatures. Set the
meeting room temperature at an agreed-upon number and keep it there. Not
too hot, not too cool is just right.
9.
Eat Local. Don't think of it as just a meeting, think of it as chance
to sample the local flavor. Our seasonal banquet menus feature locally
grown and sourced products.
10.
Use Recycled Products. Your ideas will look just as smart on 100%
recycled paper. Other items, such as menus and pens should have at least
some recycled material too.
