Since last year, Lotte Hotel & Resort has been expanding related activities under the slogan 'RE:Think Journey.' They have been particularly committed to spreading a sustainable travel culture through initiatives such as the Green Stay campaign to reduce resource waste, establishing a circular resource system for used linens through business agreements with local ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) startups in Jeju, and a pledge campaign for eco-friendly travel culture. Internally, they have actively promoted awareness improvement by encouraging voluntary plogging activities and zero-waste efforts among employees.
