Monterey, CA, March 12, 2016 - Want to travel while also doing something good for the planet? On
April 22, hundreds of thousands of people across the globe will celebrate the 36th annual Earth Day,
pitching in to clean up local roads and waterways, abandoned parking lots and city parks in what has
become an annual rite of spring.
Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa shows their commitment to the environment and their local
communities with programs that ranged from a naturalist-led beach clean to shutting the lights in all
unoccupied rooms, and employees turned out to volunteer at dozens of local green efforts. These
activities take place throughout the year.
In honor of Earth Day, Friday, April 22nd, the Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa in Monterey is
offering the following promotions:
The hotel will give out a tree-in-a-box kit to guests who check in on April 22nd. This will be a kit to
grow your own tree at home! #TravelGreen #InAHyattWorld
TusCA Ristorante will be featuring menu specials appealing to locavores, vegetarians, and vegans using
both locally grown and organic ingredients. In addition the hotel will offer specials in sustainable wine.

In addition, Hyatt has an ongoing commitment to green meetings. At Hyatt, we have the same
commitment to caring for the earth as we do to caring for our guests. Follow these 10 steps to reduce
the environmental impact of your.
1. Plan Ahead. Surprises are lots of fun, but not for meetings. Provide us with your meeting info and
event orders 10 days in advance to reduce the use of last minute resources.
2. Please Recycle. Commit to using the recycling bins provided by the hotel at all functions, meetings,
offices and guest rooms making it easy to be green. Recycling services vary by property.
3. Print local. It's better to print it there than bring it there. It's even better to print on recycled paper
we're here to help you coordinate all your printing needs and will provide you with a list of
recommended environmental printing services.
4. Ship Less. Shipping meeting materials wastes fuel, paper, plastic, energy and water. So, no more than
one pallet of materials can be shipped to the hotel for each 100 rooms occupied and no more than
pallet going home.
5. Take what you need. Rather than handing out pens and note pads, place all meeting materials in a
central location so meeting attendees can take only what they need.
6. Ban the bottle. Drinking lots of water is good. But not from a plastic bottle. Instead, use reusable
bottles and refill at conveniently located filtered water stations.
7. Waste not. While we're at it, let's eliminate the use of other disposable products at meetings.
Exceptions can be made for Boxed meals and poolside service.
8. Keep it comfy by setting reasonable meeting temperatures. Set the meeting room temperature at an
agreed-upon number and keep it there. Not too hot, not too cool is just right.
9. Eat Local. Don't think of it as just a meeting, think of it as chance to sample the local flavor. Our
seasonal banquet menus feature locally grown and sourced products.
10. Use Recycled Products. Your ideas will look just as smart on 100% recycled paper. Other items, such
as menus and pens should have at least some recycled material too.
