Leonardo Academy quantifies emissions caused by events, conducts competitive procurement of offsets, and certifies the level of offsets achieved with our Cleaner and Greener® program.

• Leonardo Academy’s Cleaner and Greener® Program for Events. Using a simple reporting process, event holders provide data that allows LEO to calculate emissions from attendee travel to and from the event, facility energy use, hotels, and meals. Event holders then may choose to offset those emissions, achieving Cleaner and Greener® Certification.  Visit the Cleaner and Greener® website for more details: http://www.cleanerandgreener.org/certification/events.html

• Tailored event sustainability services. Leonardo Academy also provides tailored packages of services to increase the sustainability of events. Components of sustainability that can be addressed include:
  • Emissions
  • Waste and recycling
  • Purchasing
  • Sustainable food service
  • Attendee transportation
  • Facility energy use
  • Water use

As part of providing event sustainability services, Leonardo Academy can analyze event characteristics and activities, make suggestions for improvements to increase sustainability, assist with goal-setting, track a wide variety of environmental impacts, and prepare event environmental impacts and strategies for ongoing sustainability improvements.
