Building on last year’s initiatives in Cork, the EAS annual meeting sustainability team continues to refine practical ways to reduce the event’s footprint.

This year, the focus is simple: small actions that add up.

Participants will be encouraged to bring their own reusable bottles reducing unnecessary production while keeping things flexible and easy.

We’re also learning more about how participants travel, helping us make better, more informed choices for future editions.
These measures reflect a practical approach to sustainability focusing on what matters and where we can make progress.
