We are committed to reducing the impact our events have on the environment. To become a truly sustainable community we need you to help us in whatever way you can.
21st Century Learning International is committing to:
- Avoiding single-use plastics
- Re-using items as much as possible from event to event
- Producing high-quality collateral that people want to use/re-use, and encouraging our partners to do this as well
- Not to throw away what can be kept and reused
- Working with vendors to avoid unnecessary packaging
- Reducing the use of “single-use” non-recyclable signage
- Not to over cater events with perishable food and to ensure that any excess food is processed in a socially responsible manner.
- Providing event resources digitally where possible and encourage our partners to do this as well
- Carbon offsetting all flights we book in the production of our events
- Working with venue providers to ensure trash is separated and recycled where possible
- Continually seeking new ways to be efficient and sustainable and to update this pledge periodically
We encourage attendees at our events to:
- Only take as much food as you can eat
- Not taking collateral and gift items you don’t plan to keep and/or give away
- Providing mechanisms for participants at our events to carbon offset their travel impact
