Tips for greening an event

All events contribute to global warming and climate change through CO2 and other green house gas emissions, which result from delegate travel and venue use.

Here at the Riviera International Conference Centre we are already working to reduce venue emissions by implementing green technologies and new environmental management systems.

For a few ways in which you can make your event even more environmentally friendly, download this document.

Delegate Transport
