Show managers can help minimize the environmental impact of their events. Here are a few best practices for creating sustainable events:
- Recycle everything
- Ask your venue for details on the green practices, including certifications
- Use technology to replace paper
- Reduce onsite printed materials
- Send email campaigns to attendees and exhibitors instead of printed materials
- Conduct green training and provide information using webinars or other online resources
- Think reusable when creating signage—don’t include event year, just logos
- Include questions during the RFP process on green standards
