HOW WE DID IT
Cut What you Can
WRI went the extra mile by choosing to reduce non-essential emissions through a variety of measures: • Locally sourced food and beverage • Vegetarian food options • Eliminating disposables and opting reusable options • Digital promotions instead of print • Encouraging carpooling to the event • Minimising the use of electricity at the event • Sustainable Event mementos

Neutralise What you can’t
The residual emissions were calculated and neutralised through Climes. District officials and stakeholders were debriefed on the process behind neutralisation and given the opportunity to choose from a list of impactful carbon neutralisation projects to support.
