As individuals, businesses, city skylines and landmarks in 172 countries and territories switched off their lights to mark Earth Hour, marking a new record, Mount Lavinia Hotel became one of the organisations which represented Sri Lanka, observing Earth Hour for the sixth consecutive year. Earth Hour 2015 was celebrated on 28 March across the world under the theme ‘Use Your Power’. From the first lights out event in Samoa, travelling across all seven continents to wind down in Tahiti, the action initiated by WWF showed an amazing show of unity. Mount Lavinia Hotel observed Earth Hour by switching off all lights in the public areas, guest rooms and restaurants. A structure depicting the iconic 60 + was lightened with the participation of the hotel staff and guests. The patrons at the Governor’s Restaurants and Seafood Cove enjoyed dinner illuminated by candle light and lamps. Driving to get better involvement, the Green Committee of MLH conducted an awareness program to all staff on 27 March which focused on the importance of preserving and using energy cleverly. Going beyond the boundaries of Mount Lavinia Hotel, this year’s Earth Hour observances reached out to the neighbourhood. The staff actively encouraged the neighbouring schools, shops and residences to participate in the Earth Hour by switching off the lights in their own houses or organisations. Through this outreach the Green Committee of MLH aims to go beyond the hour and encourage all stakeholders to work together towards cultivating a better living environment for our future.
