This mini-series explores sustainable events. Today, the events industry is more popular than ever – generating over $1.1 trillion US dollars in global revenue annually and predicted to increase more that 10% over the next 5 years. Nonetheless, the environmental impact of large scale events is significant and difficult to reduce. In this 3-part series on sustainable events, we’ve chosen three of the most impressive global event organizations with sustainability at their core to understand their visions and challenges for operating a planet-friendly event.

In the third and final episode of this series, we talk with Julia Pallé, Sustainability Director at Formula E, the international electric car racing tournament. They discuss how the events themselves can be a vehicle for driving sustainability on an even bigger scale.
