SUSTAINABILITY
At Vexhibitions we take our commitment to sustainability very seriously and encourage others to do so too.
Traditional events can generate on average a whopping 247kg of carbon emissions per person/day, depending on flights, local transport, utilities, accommodation, and catering.
In comparison joining a virtual event has a significantly less carbon footprint, and can save up-to 99% in reductions.
Therefore the benefits of attending a virtual event to reduce carbon emission is significant.
In our bid for our events to be carbon nutral, we have teamed up with TreeNation to ensure we have as little impact on the environment as possible.
For each attendee visiting one of our events, we will offset their carbon footprint by compensating for the co2 emissions generated by planting trees. This has been recognized by the scientific community as a vital pillar to tackle climate change..
In addition to the exhibitions, we have also ensured our website is net zero along with all of our team, making sure we are doing our bit to fight climate change.
By doing this we ensure our exhibitions don’t cost the 🌎
