June 5 : Marriott India proudly announced the successful achievement of its World Environment Day 2026 commitment to plant 125,000 trees across its extensive portfolio of over 200 hotels nationwide, further strengthening its long-standing commitment to sustainability, environmental stewardship, and community engagement.
Building upon the landmark success of 2025, when Marriott India achieved the milestone of planting 100,000 trees, this year’s initiative was anchored in an enhanced “Four Trees Per Room” commitment, reflecting the company’s continued efforts to create a meaningful and measurable environmental impact. The initiative witnessed enthusiastic participation from associates across the country, with 7,713 associates volunteering over 21,000 hours towards tree plantation and environmental conservation activities. Collectively, Marriott India’s portfolio of over 30000 rooms contributed towards this ambitious goal, reinforcing the organization’s belief that meaningful change is driven through collective action.
In collaboration with local authorities, environmental organizations, NGOs, and community partners, tree plantation drives were conducted across multiple cities and regions in India. The initiative focused on restoring green cover, supporting biodiversity, enhancing local ecosystems, and contributing towards long-term climate resilience.
“At Marriott India, sustainability is not simply an initiative—it is a responsibility that is deeply embedded in how we operate and engage with our communities. Following the achievement of planting 100,000 trees last year, we challenged ourselves to go even further through our Four Trees Per Room commitment. The enthusiastic participation of our associates and hotels across the country reflects our collective commitment to environmental stewardship. Together, we are creating a greener future while contributing meaningfully to the wellbeing of our communities and the planet,” said Sanjay Gupta, Chairman, Marriott India Business Council.
JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu
In support of Marriott India’s commitment to planting one lakh twenty-five thousand trees across the country, JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu is proud to contribute through initiatives that reflect both environmental responsibility and community involvement.
As part of its ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship, the hotel undertook an extensive plantation drive, beginning with the planting of over 1,420 saplings across its premises. Extending its impact beyond the property, the initiative continued at Pushpa Narsee Park in Juhu, further contributing to the city’s green cover and biodiversity. The hotel also donated more than 800 saplings to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation , reinforcing its commitment to fostering a greener and more sustainable future for the community.
Building on the prestigious LEED Platinum certification – the highest distinction under the globally recognized green building rating system, JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu continues to champion sustainability through responsible and innovative operational practices. The hotel significantly reduces its environmental footprint through an in-house water bottling facility that recirculates over 5,000 reusable glass bottles daily, minimizing reliance on single-use plastics. Further advancing its sustainability goals, the property generates approximately 1,600 kWh of renewable energy each day through rooftop solar panels, operates a 500-kilogram-capacity organic waste converter to divert food waste from landfills, and utilizes refillable bath amenity dispensers to reduce plastic consumption. Additionally, its on-site sewage treatment plant enables treated water to be reused for landscape irrigation and washroom facilities, supporting efficient and responsible water management across the hotel.
Marriott India’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond tree plantation initiatives. Across its hotels, the company continues to champion responsible practices including energy efficiency, water conservation, waste reduction, sustainable sourcing, and community-led environmental programs, creating a positive and lasting impact for future generations.
