Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort & Casino Earns “Silver Certification” from Green Globe for Ecologically Sound Practices

Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort & Casino is proud to announce it is officially the first “Green Globe Certified” High Rise resort on Palm Beach. The Authentic Island Chic resort on 12 beachfront acres on the northwest coast of Aruba received the prestigious Silver Status under the Green Globe Earthcheck Certification program, the premier international certification alliance for sustainable travel and tourism.

Following the ongoing success of the resort’s EMBRACE Project to inspire staff and guests to revitalize cherished local landmarks, the certification recognizes the resort’s dedication to operating at the world’s highest environmental standards.

Undertaking this highest level of Green Globe programs is no easy process, requiring an extensive audit encompassing interviews and reviews of policies and operations. Green Globe representatives, met with numerous associates, pursued onsite inspections and reviewed a range of environmental indicators using their Earthcheck™ tool, including the resort’s energy consumption, its sustainability policy and even its parrot population.

By fostering a spirit of innovation, collaboration and community focus for all associates of Hyatt Regency Aruba, a true team effort was put in place to reach this impressive milestone.

The Green Globe program as managed by EC3 Global is the worldwide Benchmarking, Certification and performance improvement system assisting the travel and tourism industry to attain sustainability.

Green Globe with Earthcheck science inside provides a certification system that responds directly to the major environmental problems facing the planet, including climate change, waste reduction and non-renewable resource management.
