GO Green Office

Dear LinkedIn Community - unfortunately our Sustainability Office account got deleted, hence we lost all our +3500 connections that we carefully curated over the past years. 😥 We are of course incredibly upset with this and wish there was anything we could have done, as we didn't even get informed about this prior to it happening. Please share and repost this with your network, so that we can try and regain as much traction as we had and hopefully build a more resilient page than before! On this note, if you haven't already and are interested: feel free to join our Sustainability Network directly, to gain better access to like-minded individuals and to a platform where we can join forces, grow our community and create opportunities to help and learn from one another! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ddMSmvN7

At the GO Green Office, a lot of projects are in full action, such as the upcoming Green Week, the Chair of the Future, or the SUMAP Program. Next to those achievements, we are proud to present to you the new Sustainable Event Manual 📗. This document is a reference work with tips and tricks for event organizers that range from little to big time investments and cover all sizes of impact. The main topics are: Energy, Transport, Food & Beverages, Materials & Waste, Water & Sanitation, Strategy and Community & Environment. The manual goes in hand with the new sustainable event policy which was implemented as of 2024 with the topics Food & Beverages and Materials & Waste. The GGO was heavily involved with the event policy as were big event organizers. In the future, the GGO hopes to stay involved in the writing extensions of the event policy while providing event organizers with tools and advice on sustainable event hosting. The set-up of the Event Manual is in 3 parts: ✔️ A short checklist ✔️ A more in-depth explanation per topic ✔️ Best practices and tips Additionally, there is an appendix of sources that the reader can use to go deepen their knowledge beyond the basics. The manual is far from final, not because it is too soon to publish, rather, it is a document that is meant to evolve and grow. It will continue to combine and summarize information on sustainable event hosting. Interested? Take a look at the Sustainable Event Manual here: https://lnkd.in/d7eQDCRT

Today, on April 1st, it is 𝗗𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆! 🌍 If everyone lived like the average Dutch citizen, humanity would need 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫 Earths to sustain itself. This means that we are depleting our annual natural budget 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗿 of the year. This does not mean that all hope is lost, of course. Let's use Dutch Overshoot Day as a call to action, inspiring positive change and a commitment to a more sustainable future for all!

Last week, some members of the GO Green Office traveled to Enschede for the Students Organizing for Sustainability International Summit! We participated in workshops, met up with other Green Offices and teams from around the world. At the inspiration showcase we got to talk about our initiatives such as the Sustainability Managers Program, the Chair of the Future, and of course the Green Week! 💚 It was a really great experience to learn from each others experiences. We are looking forward to attending again next year! Anne-Sophie Borgers, Luca Visee, Jia Ming Ong, Hanna Brita Kähari, Jarno Soós, Joery Clements
