 Carbon
Neutral Conference
Every aim has been made to reduce the carbon footprint, or
human impact, this conference will make on the environment.
Producing an event completely void of a carbon footprint is
extremely difficult, and in order to reach neutral status
IAPA will be offsetting the remaining carbon footprint by
reinvesting in an equal amount of sustainable resources.
