Considering the Conference Footprint

For 2012 Julie Montgomery served as as the Sustainable Enterprise Conference Greening Director. See our conference greening press release.

In the spirit of decreasing the “footprint” of the conference, the Sustainable Enterprise Conference is taking a number of steps to model green event production practices...

  • choosing a venue that is pioneering sustainable design & philosophy and that features energy produced from solar power
  • maximizing electronic communication and limiting print material
  • printing our conference program on New Leaf paper.
  • offering a local and sustainable/organic lunch, beverages and snacks
  • encouraging ride sharing
  • providing filtered water from bulk dispensers
  • using ceramic vs disposable dish ware
  • collaborating with Sally Tomatoes to maximize waste diversion through recycling and composting on conference day
  • sourcing local vendors for conference logistics
  • decorating with living plants that will be donated to local gardens (350 Home & Garden Challenge - Bayer Farm)
