Sapporo Convention Bureau is committed to sustainability in events. They understand that measuring and managing carbon footprints can be time-intensive and complex. In fact, over 80% of an event's emissions come from delegate travel alone.

To address this, Sapporo Convention Bureau has partnered with Meetings & Events Sapporo Hokkaido (MESH) to develop a carbon offset program. This program supports forestation and wildlife preservation initiatives in Hokkaido, helping to minimize the environmental impact of the events they organize. In additional exciting news, Sapporo was the only Japanese city to participate in the Global Destination Sustainability Index (GDS-Index), which evaluates cities based on sustainability performance.

Sapporo achieved a 7% improvement from the previous year, scoring a total of 59%. This recognition puts Sapporo alongside top-performing cities like Gothenburg, Copenhagen, and Helsinki. For more information and to download the full report, visit Sapporo Convention Bureau's website.
