what could the hotel contribute?
Good morning, everyone.
Today is Earth Day, a special day to remember how important our planet is. As a ***** hotel, we want to show our guests and our community that we care about the Earth.
There are many simple things we can do together. Please help by turning off lights and air conditioning when not needed. Use less water when cleaning rooms, and report any leaking taps or toilets. We will also place signs in guest rooms to remind them to save energy and reuse towels.
Let’s reduce plastic by using refillable water bottles and saying no to plastic straws. Please also sort waste into the correct bins—plastic, paper, and food.
In the restaurant and kitchen, try to avoid food waste. Take only what you need and store food properly.
We will plant a small tree in the hotel garden today to celebrate Earth Day. You are all welcome to join.
Every small action helps. Together, we can make our hotel cleaner, greener, and a great example for others.
Thank you for your support and care.

A more polished, elaborate version:
Good morning, everyone.
Today is Earth Day, a special day to remind us how important it is to care for our planet. As a ***** hotel, we are not only a place of comfort and service—we are also part of a global community that must protect the environment.
There are many meaningful actions we can take together:
Please turn off lights, air conditioning, and machines when not in use. Use water carefully, and report any leaking taps or toilets immediately. Every drop saved matters.
Let’s reduce plastic waste by using refillable bottles and avoiding plastic straws. Sort waste into the right bins—paper, plastic, food, and general waste—to help with recycling.
In the kitchen and restaurant, plan carefully to reduce food waste. Store food properly, take only what is needed, and use everything wisely.
To celebrate Earth Day, we will plant a tree in the hotel garden today. It’s a small step, but one that shows our care for the future.
Remember: small actions lead to big changes. Our guests notice our efforts, and so does the planet.
Thank you for your care and teamwork. Let’s make every day a little greener, together.
Happy Earth Day!
