Since the start in 2014, we have helped both large and small event organizers and companies. In addition to the tool and certification, we also offer skills-enhancing efforts via, for example, workshops or seminars.
As a customer with us, you get sustainability expertise with a focus on events. You become part of a large network where together we raise the level of knowledge and share experiences. We also invite you to lectures, networking meetings and much more.
Because concepts such as "sustainability" and "sustainable development" can be perceived as very comprehensive and complex, definitions can be helpful. Greentime's definition start from the holistic perspective where the three dimensions of sustainability; ecological, social and economic, must be integrated and collaborate in order to achieve a sustainable society.
As the temperature rises on our planet, so do the demands from our decision-makers through climate goals, climate reports and laws. Visitors also expect more in the environmental issue. We must simply move away from our dependence on fossil fuels, stop using harmful chemicals, stop pushing away ecosystems and at the same time ensure that human needs are met. We of course listen to the research, and follow Johan Rockström's work with “The planet's sustainable boundaries”
The social aspect of sustainability has several different angles. It is partly about basic human rights, for example the right to be able to participate in an event without being discriminated against. It can also mean choosing local suppliers, labor or volunteers for your event. Make your event something that the locals can feel joy and pride in, you get the great marketing for free.
Economic sustainability is a structure created by man and therefore has a greater scope for interpretation. We have chosen to focus on the economy as a tool for achieving environmental and social sustainability. A circular approach by minimizing purchasing, recycling and renting and borrowing materials saves both money and is better for the environment. Making choices that combat corruption and unsustainable working conditions strengthens social sustainability globally.
