Sheraton Portsmouth Hosts Earth Hour 2012 Saturday

Earth_HourMARK YOUR CALENDAR

On Saturday March 31, 2012 the Sheraton Portsmouth Harborside Hotel will join hundreds of millions of people across the globe in switching off the lights in the hotel for one hour. Earth Hour is the world’s largest public action for the environment. By taking part in this global “lights out” event the hotle will be acknowledging its commitment to personal and operational actions that benefit the planet in the year ahead. (Continued below)

 

Earth Hour gives the Sheraton Portsmouth Harborside the opportunity to take part in the biggest ever global event in the fight against climate change, and to demonstrate to its associates, guests and suppliers just how important simple actions can be towards saving energy and reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. Earth Hour symbolizes that working together each of us can make an impactful difference on the health of our planet.

To ensure that the Sheraton Portsmouth’s support towards Earth Hour 2012 is successful and a safe experience for our guests this hotel will be sharing energy-saving measures during this one-hour period. This will include turning off exterior signage lighting, and dimming or turning off all non-essential interior lighting. Candlelight will be used in appropriate public areas under strict supervision of  qualified hotel security. 

To further show its commitment to this worthy initiative, the Sheraton Portsmouth will have a candlelit check-in between8:30 and 9:30 that will be as efficient and quick as any other day, hotel officials predict. The hotel’s restaurant, Harbor’s Edge, will promote its environmental initiative with special Earth Hour events, offering candlelight dinners, and Earth ‘cocktail’ Hours.

The Sheraton Portsmouth Hotel is inviting everyone to follow its Earth Hour 2012 initiative on the Hotel’s Facebook page. They also encourage everyone to join in the Earth Hour 2012 by switching off lights for an hour on the 31st of March 2012 and to experience the difference that you can make. Because turning off the lights is always better when shared. Visit www.earthhour.org and show the world what can be done.
