Sustainable travel organisation Trees4Travel has announced that its new Trees4Events tool for meeting planners has joined Cvent’s app marketplace.
Trees4Events, which was launched in 2022, gives planners guidance on how to create a sustainable event from its first concept stage to managing environmental compensation, including a free CO2 calculation tool.
The tool is now featured within the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) section on Cvent’s App Marketplace.
After receiving all the data on the event, Trees4Events creates a “climate positive” plan of the trees that need to be planted as compensation, as well as providing United Nations Carbon Credits which allow the event team to “more than offset” the total emissions impact of the meeting.
Nico Nicholas, co-founder of Trees4Travel, said: “Trees4Events isn’t just a numbers game - this tool produces tangible effects from the get-go.
“Keeping the tool free will enable us to reach and guide more organisers through a better planning process to avoid carbon creation and then allows them to not only compensate for what cannot be avoided, but educates all delegates on making better choices, as well as on what has been done in their name.”
