How Do I Love Thee, Green? Let Me Count The Ways।
At BANFF, we're as committed to the environment as we are to television. We listened to what delegates had to say about last year's Festival and this June, BANFF is undergoing a complete eco-overhaul through initiatives designed to reduce our impact on the planet.
We believe in sourcing and supporting sustainable projects which reduce waste and energy consumption. For us it's not just lip service and we're striving to put our money where our mouths are. From the purchasing of carbon credits to off-set transportation, to providing more recycling stations throughout the conference centre, to finding ways to eliminate paper waste, these are some of the unique ways in which we're "greening up" at BANFF and making a conscious effort to reduce our Carbon Footprint.
New Jute Delegate Bags!
As a fresh departure from the traditional synthetic fibre nylon bags that most conferences use, this year we're shaking it up with a more environmentally sustainable delegate bag.
BANFF is launching a brand new era in developing a greener conference bag. We're moving away from the traditional synthetic vinyl conference bags, and embracing a more eco-friendly, 100% biodegradable, fair trade delegate bag made from jute; a pesticide-free rain-fed crop and vegetable fibre. Knowing that these gems are made in India by an ISO (International Organization for Standardization) company with very strict regulations and that the airplane shipping of these bags is carbon-offset through donations to pollution reduction projects, you can carry your guilt-free jute conference bag with pride . We're doing the tree-hugging for you so that you can spend more time networking and establishing the relationships that you need to business.
