          Consider the embedding of $G$. I claim we can construct an embedding of $H$ on the same surface. For the edge deletions this is trivial. For the edge contractions one can picture the process as a continuous deformation of the graph without changing the surface. Hence any sequence of edge deletions and and edge contractions that builds $H$ from $G$ gives you an embedding of $H$ on the embedding surface of $G$. Therefore the embedding genus of $H$ has to be smaller or equal than the embedding genus of $G$.
