Environmental Considerations

​

We are committed to reducing our impact on the environment.  To this end we have engaged the following protocols :

Fly with Air New Zealand!
Take the opportunity to offset your carbon footprint and fly with Air New Zealand.  FlyNeutral supports New Zealand travellers to offset the carbon emissions associated with their Air New Zealand flights. See here for more information about FlyNeutral.

Catering
We are working with our venue to minimise food waste plus we will be offering a great variety of delicious meals for our lunches throughout the conference, along with a good number of vegetarian options. Please ensure you bring along a refillable water bottle so we minimise the usage of disposable plastic cups!

Delegate Handouts
We will NOT be supplying  plastic name badges, rather we will print your name directly onto recyclable card. We won't be offering delegate satchels/bags either so if you need a bag please feel free to bring one along with you.

Printed Material
We endeavour to minimize printing in general and will be offering information via electronic means as much as possible.

Sponsors and Exhibitors
We are working with our supporters to ensure the environmental message is passed along. Sponsors and exhibitors have been asked to ensure they reduce their waste and environmental impact by providing appropriate information about themselves and their services in electronic format rather than printed material.
