Opis

This book celebrates what has been already achieved in moving the meetings and events industry towards a more sustainable future, and pushes the boundaries of imagination to visualize what might be possible in the years to come.

Written not only as a tool, but as a capacity-builder for future sustainable leaders within the industry, this book includes a wealth of information on new sustainability tools: new standards, new technologies, and even new books.
