A Green Event
removing the carbon footprint of St.George OpenAir Cinema
As an event which celebrates our environment, St.George OpenAir Cinema is making a long term commitment to remove the carbon footprint of the event. With out sponsors and through our partnership with carbon management company, Carbon Planet, we're continuing initiatives started last year relating to this endeavour.
Specific initiatives we're undertaking include;
- A comprehensive greenhouse gas emissions audit.
- Implementing emissions reduction behaviour by:
- Printing our program and other printed materials on carbon neutral or recycled paper.
- Adopting responsible waste disposal practices and, where possible, choosing recyclable or biodegradable cutlery, plates and plasticware for the event's restaurant and bar.
- Minimising our carbon emissions by ensuring we think and act green in as many ways as possible, including the supplies and suppliers we use, and the organisations we partner with.
- Offsetting any remaining greenhouse gas emissions with fully certified carbon credits.
