 The Novetel Phan Thiet resort in central Binh Thuan province
has been recognised by the Green Globe International to
achieve the world’s highest environmental standards,
becoming the first in Vietnam to receive the Green Globe
certificate.Last September, the resort, together with several others
in Vietnam made commitments to following the highest
environmental standards set by the Green Globe Int.
It was assessed according to eight performance criteria,
including waste treatment, pollution and noise reduction,
and energy and water consumption control.
Steward Moore, Green Globe top official said Novotel Phan
Thiet is a prime example of an organisation committed to
environmentally sustainable tourism. “ The Novotel’s
commitment to participating in the Green Globe programme and
its achievements set an example for other businesses to
follow,” he said.
Novotel Phan Thiet Resort, located 200 km north of Ho Chi
Minh City, is one of the most pristine beach environments in
the country. The resort offers 123 elegantly furnished rooms
with view to the picturesque Phan Thiet coastline.
Green Globe certificate is a worldwide renowned distinction
provided by the Australia-based Green Globe, a system
assisting the travel and tourism industry to attain
sustainability. Green Globe provides a certification system
that responds directly to the major environmental problems
