The Top Ten Reasons to go with a green event.

1. When choosing a caterer who uses local foods consider this - preparing one serving of a meal using imported ingredients from a supermarket uses 4-17 times more petroleum consumption than preparing the meal with locally grown ingredients.

2. Using 100% post consumer recycled paper for your printing needs produces 74% less air pollution and 35% less water pollution, as well as using 58% less water and 64% less energy than making paper from virgin wood pulp.

3. When printing, replacing the commonly used petroleum oil with vegetable oil in printing inks utilises a renewable resource and helps conserve finite petroleum supplies. It reduces emissions from 30%VOC (Volatile organic compounds) to as low as 2 - 4% VOCs. And they don't cost more than traditional inks!

4. Using water coolers or pitchers of water at your next big meeting can save thousands of dollars.

5. Choosing a venue with natural lighting can offset major energy costs.

6. Buying in bulk can lower costs as much as 60%! (Think cream, sugar, coffee, butter, cream cheese, jam).

7. Printing two-sided communication can cut your paper costs in half.

8. Using email instead of paper invitiations reduce your paper costs to zero!

9. Composting your food waste ensures that less garbage ends up in a landfill. A 100 person meeting can produce up to 100 pounds in composatable waste!

10. Because we've only got one planet.
