The GoSH footprint
SUSTAINABILITY
As an event we are looking at multiple ways to reduce our carbon footprint. After working with the team at Everclime, we realised a major source of the carbon emissions generated by the event will be associated with transport.
Thanks to Impact ICT, we were able to measure and mitigate the emissions associated with the travel to and from the event, supporting the Rimba Raya Project
