At Starwood, Global Citizenship is about being part of something bigger than ourselves or our company; it strengthens our pride in our work and the work of our colleagues, reinforces our culture, protects our company and strengthens our communities. Global Citizenship provides our guests, customers, communities, owners, and associates a better way to experience the world. We enlist our global network of hotels, our world-renowned brands, and our dedicated associates in implementing our Global Citizenship initiatives to ensure our environmental and social standards are consistently upheld, supporting the success of our business. Working together, we accomplish more than we ever could alone.
Starwood has quietly been an industry leader in implementing energy efficient, emission reducing technologies. Through collaboration with our hotel owners, franchisees, suppliers and business partners, we will actively work to reduce the environmental impact of our practices aimed at conserving natural resources, minimizing waste and pollution, enhancing indoor environmental quality, establishing and reporting on key environmental performance indicators, and raising environmental awareness among our associates, guests and communities.
