How is GENFEST engaging in sustainability?

With the “Together to Care” perspective, we see Sustainability in its environmental, social, and economic aspects.

Our call for reflection and action is: that human beings are part of nature and, just as it is with nature, it is in diversity that we will find the resilience to care together.

To this end, we have organized to engage everyone involved in Genfest in actions for care, socio-environmental responsibility initiatives, and transparency about what has been accomplished.

Among our main initiatives are:

Reducing environmental impact with more eco-friendly solutions for Genfest operations (e.g., using biodegradable/recyclable packaging and reusable cutlery)
Solid waste management for Zero Waste certification
CO2 offsetting for the event’s climate neutrality

CLIMATE NEUTRALITY OF THE EVENT

HOW IT WORKS

Achieving climate neutrality requires three steps: Estimate the carbon footprint, reduce the emissions generated, and offset the remaining emissions through projects.

CALCULATION OF EMISSIONS

Inventory of CO2 emissions generated by the event. 301.2-ton CO2 is estimated between infrastructure and travel.

REDUCTION OF EMISSIONS

Encouragement of lower emission means of transportation and adoption of more environmentally friendly solutions for the event’s operation.

OFFSET

Purchase of carbon credits to neutralize event management scopes. Tree planting campaign in the Atlantic Forest biome for Genfest participants’ travel.

FIND OUT HOW TO HELP

Did you know that both organizing GENFEST and traveling to the event generate CO2? It’s estimated that a 301.2-ton CO2 footprint will be emitted for the 2024 edition.

How can we achieve climate neutrality for the event TOGETHER and REFOREST our experience? To achieve this, the goal is to plant 2,150 trees in partnership with the NGO SOS Mata Atlântica – and you can be part of this! With only R$19,90 it’s possible to plant 1 tree. Donate whatever amount you can!
