SHERATON PATTAYA RESORT RESORT GOES DARK FOR EARTH HOUR 2013
It’s lights out for Sheraton Pattaya Resort
The resort was joining millions around the world in turning off lights for Earth Hour 2013 to illuminate a powerful message about environmental awareness and action.
Earth Hour 2013 takes place on March 23 at 8:30 p.m. local time. Created by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Earth Hour is the largest movement for the planet in human history, spanning 7,000 cities, 152 countries, with a digital reach of 200 million.
This year’s theme is “Uniting People to Protect the Planet.” With that in mind, Sheraton Pattaya Resort activated a range of energy-saving measures during Earth Hour. Sheraton Pattaya Resort was turning off exterior signage lighting; dim or turn off non-essential interior lighting; use candlelight in appropriate public areas such as restaurants and bars; and use in-room letter message to inform guests about Earth Hour observances.
Sheraton Pattaya Resort also provided the fire show performances during Earth Hour (8:30pm — 9:30pm) at the terrace of Elements restaurant.
“It’s a privilege for us to support such a powerful movement with such a simple gesture,” said Tomo Kuriyama, GM of Sheraton Pattaya Resort. “Earth Hour also reflects a philosophy we try to practice year-round: The small steps each of us take can make a big difference together.”
