\"The<\/a>Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, December 15, 2025\/ TRAVELINDEX \/ The Hari Hong Kong has achieved \u2018EarthCheck Silver status\u2019 in recognition of its broad spectrum of sustainability initiatives, placing the Wan Chai hotel among the globe\u2019s most eco-friendly travel and tourism operators.<\/p>\n

To achieve and maintain Silver Certified accreditation with EarthCheck, the world\u2019s leading<\/a> scientific benchmarking, certification and advisory group, the hotel must be independently audited annually and meet stringent requirements across key performance areas.<\/p>\n

The hotel\u2019s potable water consumption for the audited year of 2024 was 204.2L per guest night. That figure is just over half of the regional average of 361L per guest night, and below what EarthCheck deems the \u201cregional leader\u201d level \u2013 meaning exemplary standard of performance for the type and location of an operation \u2013 at 253L per guest night.<\/p>\n

The Hari Hong Kong\u2019s energy consumption per guest night was 101.15 MJ for 2024, almost half the regional average of 180.3 MJ per guest night and also below the regional leader level of 126MJ per guest night. During the same timeframe, the hotel sent 3.37L of waste to landfill per guest night, just over a third of the regional average of 9.01L per guest night and almost half of the regional leader level of 6.31L per guest night.<\/p>\n

The hotel\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions for the audited year of 2024 were 18.33kg CO2-e per guest night, sitting right at the regional leader level and under the regional average of 25kg CO2-e per guest night.<\/p>\n

Other performance highlights during the audited year include, due to the hotel\u2019s ban on single use plastics, the avoidance of an estimated 109,878 500ml plastic bottles and 47,767 30ml bathroom amenities bottles.<\/p>\n

The Hari Hong Kong<\/a>, which opened in December 2020 in the heart of Wan Chai, was established through sustainable design and construction which sought to reduce negative impacts on the environment. The hotel is also a LEED (Silver), BEAM Plus (Silver) and BEEO certified hotel in recognition for its sustainable design, construction and energy efficiency performance.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are continually striving to improve our performance in environmental and social sustainability across everything we do, ranging from our energy and water conservation efforts to responsible purchasing, local employment and community support,\u201d said the hotel\u2019s General Manager Edward E. Snoeks.<\/p>\n

The hotel works with Green Island Cement on its ShellCem Project to collect and upcycle oyster shells and other seashells such as mussel and scallop shells into cement.<\/p>\n

A green wall on the facade of the hotel\u2019s second floor terrace, that stretches three stories high, contributes positively to the environment by helping to reduce the temperature of surrounding areas.<\/p>\n
