Business Events Cairns & Great Barrier Reef is taking action towards more sustainable business events with the launch of the Reforest program.
In collaboration with environmental management organisation Terrain, the innovative program will facilitate the revegetation of the Wongabel Mabi Rainforest near Cairns, which had previously been cleared for forestry and agriculture.
Through the Reforest app, or the event app and website, or by displaying a QR code during the business event, delegates have the opportunity to restore the local ecosystem.
Reforest will calculate an event’s high-level carbon footprint and offer organisations options to offset their event by purchasing trees for planting in the local area.
