Today, heightened pressure on our environment鈥檚 limited resources is harming the ecosystems they sustain and creating environmental injustices in every corner of the globe. A significant source of this pressure comes from our throw-away culture, especially the single-use items that have become commonplace for their low-cost convenience. This is particularly true for events. Packaging-dependent food choices, plastic bottles, disposable service ware, marketing giveaways, and guest transportation are just some aspects of an event that create waste directly or indirectly. These options also accumulate indirect costs for both event hosts and attendees that could be avoided. We now know that the costs of our choices stretch far beyond their single use. Hosting a 鈥淕reen Event鈥� is one way to manage event choices responsibly and thoughtfully to minimize environmental impacts.

Green Events focus on integrating sustainability into every step of the event process. This means that the environmental, social, and economic aspects are considered, and adaptations are made to reduce negative impacts. A goal of achieving 鈥渮ero waste鈥� is central to Green Events, which is defined as diverting 90% of waste from landfills through recycling and composting. This guide will help 帝王会所 students, organizations, staff, departments, and community groups host Green Events on campus.

By following the simple suggestions in this guide, you can easily demonstrate your organization鈥檚 or department鈥檚 commitment to the environment, showcase responsible practices, and help reduce the University鈥檚 waste footprint. Your Green Event choices will create a lasting impression on attendees and encourage them to make environmentally- conscious choices as well!
