AL4 makes every effort to follow good practices of an environmentally-friendly event:
Communication and Publicity
- We minimize printing; electronic files are used whenever possible
- A mobile app is used to facilitate communication
- Physical banners are made with paper, no foam board nor vinyl is used
- The canvas tote bag and the conference USB are designed to be practical and reusable
- We choose not to use corsage
Food and Drinks
- We are cautious about the amount of food ordered
- No disposable cutlery; we avoid unnecessary wrapping
- We do not provide plastic bottled water. Participants are encouraged to bring their own mugs
- We work with the conference dinner provider to come up with a menu with ingredients coming from sustainable sources as much as possible
- Untouched food surplus will be taken by charity
- Food waste during lunches and tea break will be sent for composting if appropriate
Transportation
- Participants are encouraged to use public transport or carpooling
- Coaches are arranged to take participants to the conference dinner venue
