Green Hotels Cocoon and HIVE celebrate Earth Hour 2019
MANILA, Philippines — Consistent with their unswerving dedication to promoting environmental awareness and sustainability, Cocoon Boutique Hotel and Hive Hotel and Convention Place celebrated Earth Hour 2019 on March 30 with a resounding call to “Reduce, Reuse, and Change the Way we Live.”
Before joining countless advocates in the country and around the world in switching off their lights, insightful talks were given by an esteemed roster of guest speakers.
Health Care without Harm Asia executive director Ramon San Pascual.
After the talks heightened the desire to #Connect2Earth, the countdown went off and lights went out from the sixth floor of Cocoon. In those 60 minutes of darkness, guests and advocates alike were treated to rousing performances from Leomar Requejo and Ukulele Rock Band Esremborak, who amplified the importance of caring about the planet. An impressive banquet had also been prepared for the guests and participants at the Grand Ballroom, making the event even more worthwhile with food that was not only sumptuous but also sustainable. The menu for the evening was entirely guilt-free.
World Wide Fund for Nature project director Edgardo Tongson.
Year in and year out, Cocoon and HIVE, ranked by TripAdvisor as number 1 and number 3 hotels, respectively, continue to provide Responsible Luxury, offering the highest standards of luxury and comfort all while caring for the environment, not just through relevant events like Earth Hour but also through green practices that they have always promoted since day one.
Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission head of public information, advocacy & tourism division George Delarama.
