CLIMATE WAKE-UP CALl

DON’T WAIT, ACT NOW

Humanity is hitting the snooze button on climate change. Hotel Marcel, America’s first fossil fuel-free hotel, is sounding the alarm with Climate Wake-Up Calls, a reimagining of the classic hotel service designed to "disturb" recipients into action.

Because if we don’t wake up now, it could be too late.

02 YOUR WAKE-UP CALL

PLEASE DISTURB

Hotel Marcel partnered with experts to record a series of Climate Wake-Up Calls. Each call highlights a climate change fact, actions Hotel Marcel is taking to address the crisis and steps listeners can take to do the same.
