This year's Genting Trailblazer will be
more than a challenging 14km run through one of the world's oldest
rainforests; it is part of Genting Group's commitment to raising
awareness on the importance of preserving the environment,
specifically our precious rainforests. The Group will work
hand-in-hand with the Malaysian Nature Society (MNS) to ensure that
the Genting Trailblazer has minimal impact on the environment while
allowing the run to showcase the great diversity and splendour of
the million-year-old rainforests surrounding Genting Highlands. As
such, we will be implementing several green measures for this year's
race. These include:
-
Prohibiting the use of
disposable plastic bottles. Please bring
reusable bottles instead. Water dispensers will be available at the
venue.
-
Using sustainable
methods for the preparation and
implementation of the race including perusing eco-friendly products
before, during and post-race.
-
Conducting
green forums and talk-shows during the event in collaboration with
MNS.
-
Dressing in green to
drive home the message. Participants are invited to do the same as a
show of support.
-
Calling for volunteers
to champion this cause and raise awareness of rainforest
conservation.
