minimize their environmental impact. These venues typically use renewable energy sources,
employ energy-efficient lighting and HVAC systems, and incorporate sustainable building
materials. By selecting green venues, event organizers can significantly reduce the carbon footprint
of their events.
2. Waste Reduction and Recycling Programs
Waste management is a critical aspect of sustainable event planning. MICE events generate
substantial amounts of waste, including paper, plastic, food, and promotional materials. To address
this, many organizers are implementing comprehensive waste reduction and recycling programs.
This includes providing clearly labeled recycling bins, encouraging digital over printed materials,
and partnering with local charities to donate leftover food. Additionally, some events are adopting
zero-waste policies, aiming to divert as much waste as possible from landfills.
