Many people around the world celebrate the United Nations’ (UN) World Tourism Day, which is on September 27 each year. The day aims to foster awareness among the international community of the importance of tourism and its social, cultural, political and economic values.
With 15.92 M International visitors in 2018 according to the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing, Dubai is becoming one of the hotspot for the tourism sector. In line with that, Two Seasons Hotel & Apartments Dubai in association with Dubai Municipality organized on 13th October a campaign to clean up the public beach near “La Mer Beach “in Dubai in order to maintain the cleanness of one of the major attraction of the city.
This is one of the company’s key CSR initiatives, reflecting its commitment to environmental conservation and protection of Dubai’s coastline. Two Seasons Hotel staff volunteered to participate in this activity.
“Such initiatives reflect the remarkable level of environmental commitment that the company promotes. It also speaks about a rich culture of a company that is striving to spread awareness among different spectrums of society about the dangers of lead pollution and its direct damage to the environment, coastal and marine habitats. Also, the pollution caused by throwing plastic bags and other waste on beaches is a matter of grave concern.
As a company, we intend to improve recycling programs, raising guests’ awareness and supporting the adoption of improved waste management practices. We are proud to contribute to the biodiversity of the UAE. And this participation is in line with a wider series of initiatives under our Green Globe Label and Dubai Government directives aiming to enhance environmental awareness “said Freddy Farid the Managing Director of Two Seasons Management Company FZ LLC.
Two Seasons Hotel staff frequently participate in community projects such as environment preservation causes, raising awareness for diseases as well as promoting healthy lifestyle for which they have been rewarded with numerous awards from Emirates Environmental Group.
