It is important to educate representatives on the issue and urge them to implement solutions.
Rakesh Mathur
Director and Principal Advisor at Lords Hotels
Lords Hotels fervently adheres to the Reduce, Reuse, Recycle philosophy and has meticulously mapped out its Environment Chapter as a sign of its protection for Mother Earth and her surroundings. We are the first hotel company in India to introduce and use an environment charter. Lords has always made an effort to make all of its properties as environmentally friendly as possible. Some of the techniques that have been implemented are turning wet waste into fertilizer and making sure that plastics are disposed of properly. The housekeeping division has been directed to make sure that waste is disposed of separately for plastics, dry waste, and wet waste at the point of origin. Recycled newspapers are used to make the laundry bags that are stored inside the rooms.

Neha Morris
Director of Sales and Marketing, THE Park New Delhi
"We must recognize the urgent need for policy change to address the escalating crisis of plastic pollution. It's not enough to rely solely on individual actions; we must advocate for comprehensive policies that regulate plastic production, consumption, and disposal. By advocating for policies such as plastic ban, extended producer responsibility laws, and incentives for sustainable alternatives, we can stem the tide of plastic pollution and safeguard the health of our planet for future generations. We, at THE Park New Delhi, have mitigated the usage of single-use plastics (SUPs) from our operations. We have replaced plastic straws with paper straws and eliminated the usage of plastic bottles and instead use glass bottles with quality drinking water for our restaurants, meeting rooms, guestrooms, and banquets."

Director of Engineering, Sheraton Grand Bengaluru Whitefield Hotel and Convention Center
Foundations can be key players in shaping the landscape for that policy and building knowledge and momentum. On the other side of the statutory process after a policy passes through regulation and becomes law, some of the harder and longer-term advocacy work begins as new policies are implemented. In my prospect one needs to use their convening power to bring together the best minds around to control plastic pollution and also to spark discussion with new ideas that may become placeholders for future policy. Grantmakers can play a powerful role in helping to educate a community about plastic usage and can even educate policymakers directly in many cases to control usage of plastic in our day to day life.

At Sheraton Grand Bangalore at Brigade Gateway, sustainability is paramount. Our water bottling plant exclusively utilizes glass bottles, reducing plastic waste. Single-use plastics are strictly banned on our premises, with paper straws replacing plastic ones. Furthermore, our room amenities are thoughtfully packaged in biodegradable materials. These initiatives underscore our commitment to environmental responsibility and creating a greener future. At Brigade, we believe that every action, no matter how small, contributes to a more sustainable world, and we're proud to lead by example in the hospitality industry.
Alpesh Rathod
Operations Manager – VITS Select Rajkot
The House Keeping staff at VITS Select Rajkot replaces the waste bags in the rooms daily. They are using biodegradable bags, which have been deemed more convenient than traditional plastic bags. This plastic is created from natural materials such as corn, potato, and wheat starch, rather than from petroleum like traditional plastics. In addition to the aforementioned, we also engage in initiatives such as water conservation and waste reduction.
