Millennium Airport Hotel Dubai supported the Earth Hour initiative last 25th March 2023 by switching off the lights from 8:30PM to 9:30PM. The hotel went dark by turning off non-essential lights for one hour emphasizing on its commitment to addressing environmental issues and to raise awareness on the impact of energy savings. Several activities have implemented such as turned down the lights in the lobby, restaurants and other public areas and only used candle lights, encouraged guests to participate by placing letters in the guest rooms as a reminder to do the same lights off moments and the Human Resources team has prepared few activities at the colleague’s accommodation such as cake cutting, games, awarding for minimal consumption of water and electricity.
Commenting on the initiatives, Mr. Simon Moore, General Manager of Millennium Airport Hotel Dubai said, ” “It’s an honor for us to support Earth Hour movement because it echoes our Green Key strategy and ambition to be the driving force of a more sustainable hospitality industry. Earth Hour reflects our goal to practice and maintain sustainability & energy conservation every year.”

It is a symbol of unity. It is a symbol of hope. It is a demonstration of the power of collective action for our future and the planets.
This year under the slogan of “The Greatest Hour for Earth”- give an Hour for Earth by spending 60 minutes doing something – anything – positive for our planet.
