Carbon Markets Club, Bangchak Group and The Erawan Group jointly drive the low carbon society initiative with the launch of the “Stay for Santa” campaign. This showcases a commitment to social and environmental responsibility. It also serves as a pioneering project that encourages private sector businesses and the general public to prioritize the initiation of creative activities aimed at
widespread reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

The four leading hotels from The Erawan Group are 1) Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok 2) JW Marriott Hotel Bangkok 3) Courtyard by Marriott Bangkok, and 4) Mercure Sukhumvit 24.

For those remaining emissions that prove challenging to eradicate, Bangchak Corporation Public Company Limited will offset the carbon emissions for hotel guests participating in the campaign with T-VER carbon credits from BCPG Public Company Limited through Carbon Markets Club. This initiative not only allows the individual carbon footprint of the guests during the New Year Festival to be offset, but also contributes to the overall joy of this festive season. Guests will enjoy an environmentally and socially responsible stay, playing their part in a more sustainable world and passing on a beautiful world to future generations, where they can live and travel happily.
