In an important milestone, Marco Polo Ortigas Manila has achieved gold certification through EarthCheck, the world’s leading business advisory group specializing in sustainability and destination management for the travel and tourism industry.

“Marco Polo Ortigas Manila is truly honored to have received such an outstanding recognition. Our efforts to meet global standards on sustainable and environmental practices have been affirmed, and we commit to operational compliance for our shareholders and community for years to come,” said General Manager Richard Simmons.

The reduction of all types of emissions from homes and business will have a positive impact on our earth’s environment. Earnest waste management of pollutants such as plastics, the conservation of natural resources, and thoughtful use of energy are positive ways to improve the status quo for future generations. The very environmental values and cultural assets that attract visitors to destinations need to be protected and responsibly managed, and the tourism industry, and its operators, are key to making a significant impact.

Stewart Moore, CEO and Founder of EarthCheck, said that Marco Polo Ortigas Manila has taken a significant leadership position in sustainability.

Mr. Moore said, “I would like to congratulate whole team at Marco Polo Ortigas Manila on their achievement. Marco Polo Ortigas Manila is a valued member of a global group of tourism operators who dare to make a difference.”

By working with EarthCheck, Marco Polo Ortigas Manila has joined other industry leaders who are taking meaningful steps towards resolving some of the very real issues that face the planet.
