You’ve been here before. You’ve been planning the meeting for months. You’ve lined up a great professional speaker, secured a perfect venue, and all the participants have been confirmed. You arrive early on the meeting day feeling tired, but satisfied.

There has been a lot of talk recently about the need for the business world to “go green” in an effort to combat climate change. The meetings industry is not immune, as evident in the growing number of associations (including MPI, PCMA, CSAE and CanSPEP) that have put sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at the top of their agendas.

There’s been no bigger story emerging in marketing than sustainability. With the current economic conditions being distinctly different than 12 months ago, and the media already reporting that companies are seeing green as a less important issue, but as consumers and brands alike are becoming more attuned to sustainability, there’s a very important insight that no business, brand or marketing professional can afford to miss: sustainability isn’t just green.
