MayanPalace and Environmental Protection

Posted in mayanpalace, natural programs by admin on November 12th, 2007

We at MayanPalace became especially concerned about preventing future damage to the area’s natural resources by another hurricane or, even worse, environmental waste. This is why MayanPalace has organized several programs aimed at helping conservation, comprised of 5 teams.

The effort will be implemented according to standards overseen and certified by Green Globe, an organization dedicated to sustainable tourism on the basis of environmental policy improvement, minimization of ecological damage, enhanced relation with local communities and resource conservation.
Our 5 teams in MayanPalace consist of:
Team 1 “Legislation and Sustainability Policies” – The  team is responsible for the establishment of our vision, mission, values, politics, philosophy, standards and safety systems that ultimately guide the hotel’s sustainable developments.
Team 2 “Energy and Waste” – The team is made up of areas that include: housekeeping, cleaning, gardening, maintenance and consumer centers. In sum, those responsible for the design, initiative, and implementation of protection, environmental improvement and energy / water conservation.
Team 3 “Ecosystem, Air, Noise, and Residuals” – The team is in charge for the design, proposal and, registration of everything related to the coordination of ecosystem, air, noise, and residual waste management.
Team 4 “Culture and Community Relations” – This team is responsible for the design, proposal, and communication with guests, hosts, suppliers, and the general community regarding implementation of Green Globe programs.
Team 5 “Golf Course” – This team applies Green Globe’s principles and standards to the golf course
