The Millennium Airport Hotel Dubai has been awarded the Green Key which is an eco-label for tourism and leisure establishments. This is awarded to establishments that fulfil a list of environmental requirements and is the leading standard of excellence for environmental responsibility and sustainable operation within the tourism industry. Obtaining Green Key demonstrates the establishments’ efforts to develop an environmental friendly, sustainable and responsible business. A Green Key award represents an establishment’s promise to its guests that by opting to stay with such a property, they are helping to make a difference on an environmental and sustainability level.
Mr. Simon Moore, General Manager of Millennium Airport Hotel Dubai, said, “We are proud to be part of the Green Key Eco Rating Program. At the Millennium Airport Hotel Dubai, we understand that our business activities impact the earth, our resources and people’s lives. We will continue leveraging our sustainability programs and Green Key environmental ideas to conserve resources, preserve natural habitats and prevent pollution that can destroy the earth.”
As part of the initiative, the hotel has established its own Environmental Management Committee, responsible for implementing policies, processes and strategies towards a greener environment.
Under the scheme, the hotel has outlined some key focus areas and best practices that include excellent performance in energy conservation and efficiency, leadership in waste management, strong commitment to sustainability, proactive community involvement, working hand-in-hand with guests to build a better world, and ongoing green educational program.
