Event Sustainability
The ACA is focused in supporting the Air Charter Industry in its drive to a sustainable future. As part of this we are ensuring our events are as sustainable as possible today.
The Air Charter Spring Lunch – A Sustainable Event
Good environmental conduct is no longer a ‘nice to have’ and for private charter to continue to thrive it’s becoming a business imperative to have sustainable initiatives in place.
There is now mass public awareness of the climate crisis and as a result we need to consider all our actions and how we can reduce our emissions and impact on the environment.
The Air Charter Spring Lunch is an important annual focal point for our industry but we want this to have a minimal environmental impact.
How are we making the Event Sustainable?
– Our food for the event has been specifically selected from a Low Carbon Footprint Menu. All being locally produced and sustainably grown to have a low carbon footprint. Overall this significantly reduces the environmental impact.
– All attendee travel, energy use, water use and waste produced at the venue related to the event will be fully offset by purchasing carbon credits from a certified provider, through our sustainability partner 4AIR. The 2024 Spring Lunch event footprint was 25mtCO2e which was offset via the Duzova Wind Power Project. View here for further details.
– Our tickets are being managed by Ticket Tailor, who are a certified carbon neutral organisation.
– Recyclable or reusable materials will be used wherever possible throughout the event.
There is always more we can do and we are committed to continual improvement to reduce the impact of our events.
