Good reasons to hold a sustainable event:

Reduces costs and saves time

Reduces energy, water and paper consumption which, associated with the use of electronic documentation, avoids the costs and time associated with purchasing, printing and distributing printed material.

Minimizes negative impacts

The events industry has major environmental, social and economic impacts.
Sustainability must become a condition when planning an event.

Saves resources and reduces waste

It optimizes energy and water consumption, eliminates or reduces the amount of disposable items and waste production, saves resources, reduces atmospheric emissions and reduces waste in landfills.

Promotes the local economy

It adds value to the local economy and is a great opportunity to showcase our region’s products. Choosing seasonal products from local suppliers helps to promote the economic and social development of the community.

Promotes environmental responsibility

A sustainable event reflects your organization’s values. It demonstrates that you know and want to minimize the environmental impacts of your activity and are willing to take action in line with the growing demand for sustainable options.

Promotes social responsibility

You can play a role in society by taking an active part in causes to which you can contribute. For example, by donating valid, unused surplus food.

Concept

The plantations are carried out by NEYA Hotels and its partner Plantar Uma Árvore – Associação, as part of volunteer initiatives open to the community and ecological recovery plans, with the aim of restoring the native forest and sustaining the biodiversity of native plant species.

How does it work?

1. 5% of the value of the Eco Meeting goes to the “Plant a Tree” initiative.
2. The trees will be planted during the planting season the following year.
3. The company can be represented at the planting kick-off initiative.
4. A report and photographic report of the initiative and carbon sequestration potential will be sent.

We act in the knowledge that a positive individual ecological attitude is the essence of global change.
