International conferences can significantly contribute to carbon emissions due to various factors such as travel, accommodation, and event logistics. In recognizing this impact, CarbonEthics is taking steps to support a low carbon conference.

CarbonEthics is collaborating with the Indonesian Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy to calculate carbon emissions at the UN Tourism: Regional Conference on the Empowerment of Women in Tourism in Asia and the Pacific was held in Bali, Indonesia, from May 2 to 4, 2024. By quantifying the emissions produced by the event, we aim to raise awareness and develop strategies to minimize the environmental impact of large-scale gatherings. This initiative is crucial in promoting sustainable practices and reducing the carbon footprint of international conferences.

Sandiaga Uno, Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy of the Republic of Indonesia, presented the total carbon calculations carried out by CarbonEthics at the event. He invited participants to take part in the mangrove planting action as a form of togetherness in action to reduce carbon footprints.

He reported, "After the three-day event, with the assistance of our partner, CarbonEthics, the total carbon emissions generated were 297,056 kg of CO2e, which is equivalent to approximately 1,500 kg per person. To offset these emissions, we need to plant about 9,000 mangrove trees. So, later today, I invite you to join me in a green action by planting mangroves in Telaga Waja, Tanjung Benoa."

Jessica Novia, one of the co-founders of CarbonEthics, was invited to the conference and actively participated in the mangrove planting initiative, Green Action: Carbon Footprint Offsetting. This initiative involved delegates in mangrove planting, showcasing a practical approach to carbon footprint mitigation and supporting the broader goal of sustainable, low-carbon conferences and tourism.
