Event GreeningAs sustainability was the focus of the Vancouver Valuation Summit, steps were taken to reduce the ecological footprint of the event: we used lanyards made from recycled pop bottles, took steps to reduce the generation of wastes, served organic food and beverage, and printed the event program on 100% post consumer waste content recycled paper. Travel of participants to-and-from the event, the consumption of electricity at the event venue, and the production of event-related print materials results in the generation of greenhouse gases which contribute to climate change. In order to mitigate this impact, participants were provided the option to offset their event-related emissions when they registered for the Summit. When participants chose to offset, they supported renewable energy projects through their contribution to the purchase of carbon offset credits from Zerofootprint. 
The Vancouver Valuation Summit organizers would like to thank Zerofootprint for sponsoring carbon offsets to make event-related print publications and electricity consumed at the event venue carbon neutral. Zerofootprint is a not-for-profit, dedicated to helping organizations, individuals and events reduce their ecological footprint. To learn more, visit www.zerofootprint.net.
