What
are the Standards?
It is easy to follow the green event standards and become a Go Greener
Certified Event. The standards include recycling, compostable
materials, and increasing awareness of alternative greener
transportation choices. Download the full standards
guide for details.
Why
get involved?
There is a growing public concern for the
environment,
which calls for action by event planners to reduce their negative
environmental
impact. The Go Greener Commission of West Lafayette’s green
certification
program for events is an integral part of this process. Go
Greener Certification is a respected seal of approval from the
city government that shows the public the event planner’s commitment to
the
environment.
A few simple changes can make a big positive
impact on
the environment. Not doing these things may have a negative impact on
your
event as attendees now expect events which are sustainable and socially
responsible. Go Greener is proud to provide advice and volunteers to
help make
your Go Greener Certified event a success. As fuel and other costs
continue to
rise, a Go Green Certified event will also be more efficient and
economically
viable.
