Conference Care has been Carbon Neutral since 2010 and believe that some of the best practices we have learnt along the way can be put into use by sharing with our customers and creating a more sustainably focused events industry, which is why we have developed Carbon Consultancy by Conference Care.
CARBON CONSULTANCY HAS THREE MAIN AIMS:
To enable event organisers to calculate the emissions generated by their event through a variety of factors.
To provide solutions that educate, create behavioural change and deliver a reduction of emissions at events.
To offer a range of programmes which allow the remaining carbon footprint to be offset in an ethical manner.

Our Carbon Offset programme, which is Verified Carbon Standard and supports the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals, allows you to balance out emissions by supporting projects around the world that help provide solutions to climate change. Not only do these programmes offset your emissions but they provide invaluable support to local communities where they are based.
We can offset the carbon emissions associated with your event by supporting projects which provide clean, renewable energy to the grid in India & Vietnam, supply innovative efficient cooking technologies to rural communities in Guatemala, treat wastewater & provide clean biogas for industry in Thailand, and help to protect the precious Amazon Rainforest against illegal deforestation in Brazil. As well as this, we will also be planting a tree right here in the UK for every 10 tonnes of carbon emissions that we offset.
