Carbon Offsetting

QELA seeks to minimise the carbon footprint and impact of all events the Association hosts.  This is achieved by reducing food and material waste, reducing printing of materials, and hosting events at venues that are accessible by public transport.


In addition to these efforts, QELA aims to carbon offset the attendance of each person who attends the 2024 QELA Conference.

Offsetting will be conducted via Greenfleet, using their recommendations for cost per person.  For more information about Greenfleet and their projects,  https://www.greenfleet.com.au/

 

If you would like more information about QELA offsetting all attendances, please contact the QELA office on info@qela.com.au
