A Low Carbon Event
Sustainable Development Forum is a Low Carbon event. In 2022, the event production industry was estimated to be responsible for 10% of global CO2 emissions annually, comparable to the USA’s yearly CO2 emissions. At Sustainable Development Forum, we take this matter seriously – we will plant a seedling for each participant joining the event and contribute to fighting global warming.
