15 Years of Caring: Blue Diamond Resorts Turns Milestone Into Movement

Blue Diamond Resorts: 15 Years of Caring, 15 Acts of Change ST. MICHAEL, Barbados, June 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As Blue Diamond Resorts enters a milestone year, the company is proud to unveil its '15 Years of Caring, 15 Acts of Change' initiative, a program that reinforces its ongoing commitment to social responsibility and sustainability across the Caribbean. Marking its 15th anniversary under the motto Fifteen & Forward, this yearlong celebration is not only a reflection of the company's journey but also a renewed pledge to create meaningful change in the destinations it calls home. Blue Diamond Resorts has long recognized that the success of its operations is deeply connected to the wellbeing of its surrounding communities and environments. The '15 Years of Caring, 15 Acts of Change' campaign brings this philosophy to life through a series of purposeful monthly actions, each aligned with global awareness days and designed to generate lasting impact. The campaign began earlier this year with a wetlands clean-up and restoration initiative in recognition of World Wetlands Day, followed by a series of immersive Earth Hour activities including beach cleanups, coastal dune reforestation, recycling contests, and the coordinated shutdown of non-essential lights across the resorts to raise awareness about climate change and energy conservation. In April, tree-planting programs marked Earth Day across multiple destinations, and most recently, guests and staff participated in a friendly resort-wide recycling challenge in celebration of World Recycling Day. These early efforts have laid a strong foundation for the meaningful work still to come. In the months ahead, Blue Diamond Resorts will continue to activate properties across its brands—including Royalton Luxury Resorts, Royalton CHIC Resorts, Hideaway at Royalton Resorts, Planet Hollywood Beach Resorts, and Mystique by Royalton— with upcoming initiatives like a Sustainability Rally featuring themed educational stations to celebrate World Environment Day. This summer, the company will also welcome 40 children with medical conditions to Planet Hollywood Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort, in collaboration with a charitable foundation, offering them a joyful week filled with memorable experiences and entertainment. Other upcoming initiatives include a plastic-free habits challenge in July, cultural fairs honoring Indigenous heritage in August, and community-driven actions such as food bank support, school adoption programs, and animal shelter donation drives. The year will culminate in December with a Volunteer Day focused on environmental and social improvements carried out in collaboration with local communities. These activities build upon a broader framework of sustainability practices that Blue Diamond Resorts continues to strengthen year after year. The company's resorts have been awarded global certifications that recognize their efforts in areas such as energy efficiency, water conservation, waste reduction, and responsible sourcing as integral pillars of its operations. As it looks ahead, Blue Diamond Resorts remains dedicated to expanding its impact with purpose. The 15th anniversary is not just a celebration of what has been achieved—it is a reaffirmation of the company's forward-thinking values and its role in shaping a more sustainable and inclusive future for hospitality.

The 8 Best Earth Day Deals

Earth Day has arrived, in a wave of sunny weather, blooming flowers, and spring cleaning season. Whether you're redoing your garden this spring, investing in more eco-friendly items, or looking to go organic, there are sales right now that can help you with that. Several Earth Day sales (plus some other spring sales) are underway to help you live a little more thoughtfully or feel a little more connected to nature. Plus, these are great sales to shop ahead of tariffs kicking in, with several companies planning to raise prices in May. All mattress and bedding prices are for queen sizes. Power up with unlimited access to WIRED . Get best-in-class reporting that's too important to ignore for just $2.50 $1 per month for 1 year. Includes unlimited digital access and exclusive subscriber-only content. Subscribe Today. WIRED Featured Deals: Photograph: EOS Naturepedic Nothing says Earth Day like finally splurging on some organic bedding. You spend at least eight hours a day in your bed, after all—why wouldn't you want to surround yourself with organic materials for such a big portion of your life? Naturepedic is running its biggest sale in honor of Earth Day and the brand's 22nd birthday by offering 22 percent off everything on the site with the code EARTH22. Its organic mattress is a favorite of ours for its traditional feel, and Naturepedic's sheet sets are of fantastic quality. You can buy them as a set or as individual pieces. Avocado Organic bedding brand Avocado has not just an Earth Day sale but an Earth Month sale that will run through early May. It's also a pre-tariffs sale, with prices expected to rise in the near future. Avocado makes a ton of great organic sleep products, particularly its Green Mattress and Eco Mattress Topper. The sale is 10 percent off, which is a price we often see, but it might be the lowest we see for a while after the new tariff prices kick in. Earth Day Home Deals Photograph: Blueland Blueland I love Blueland. It's one of our favorite eco-friendly cleaning products here at WIRED. My laundry cupboard is filled with the laundry tablets and various spray cleaners that I've been refilling for years now, and every sink in the house has its own Blueland soap dispenser. The brand has an Earth Day sale going for its various starter bundles, like the Hand Soap Starter Set that includes a soap bottle and three refill tablets, and the Clean Essentials Kit, which includes its three different spray cleaners. You will need to hit $60 in your cart to see the discount, and you can get 20 percent off single-purchase items or 30 percent off subscribing to refills. Cariloha Bamboo sheets are some of my favorites to sleep on. They're silky-soft and cool to the touch, but are a nice choice for spring since they'll warm up around you overnight. Some are even great cooling sheets. The newest ones I've tried are from Cariloha, and both sets were decadently soft and silky. The brand has a few different bamboo sheet styles, but the Classic Sheets are my favorite thanks to the securing bands that keep them from moving around. All of Cariloha's sheets are on sale with $50 off for Earth Day—use the code EARTH at checkout. Humanscale Humanscale's office chairs aren't just great for tight spaces and reclining; the chairs' recycled materials don't sacrifice comfort. WIRED reviewer Julian Chokkattu describes sitting in Humanscale's Freedom Headrest chair as bliss, and Humanscale uses recycled materials in its chairs and has rainwater capture systems at its manufacturing sites. In honor of Earth Day, Humanscale is running 20 percent off its ocean and climate-positive products on its website with the code EARTH20. Here are our two favorites to shop during the sale. Cozy Earth Cozy Earth is actually already having its Mother's Day sale, but given that bamboo bedding is a little more eco-friendly than other manmade options (though it's not a completely eco-conscious solution), it's a good option to consider for Earth Day. It also uses bamboo viscose over bamboo rayon, which is the better option of the two. Cozy Earth's items are all insanely soft—from bedsheets to towels—thanks to bamboo. Earth Day Outdoor Deals Photograph: Kat Merck Bird Buddy What's more thoughtful to do for the Earth than to feed the birds? With a smart bird feeder, you can also easily watch the birds without bothering them as they snack. Bird Buddy makes one of our favorite new smart bird feeders, the Smart Bird Feeder Pro (7/10, WIRED Recommends)—pick it up while the brand's site is currently running an Easter sale. Goal Zero Goal Zero's power stations can keep you powered up during a power outage or on the go, and its solar panels mean you can take advantage of the sun's natural energy. The brand's Earth Day sale kicked off over the weekend and will run through tomorrow. Our favored portable power station series from Goal Zero unfortunately isn't included in the sale, but the petite Nomad 5 solar panel and Flip battery banks are a good choice for wilderness adventures.
