ICRD 2017 will be climate-neutral, based on a communications partnership with myclimate. Compensation funds for an estimated 550 tonnes of CO2 will benefit three high-quality myclimate climate protection projects: “Wood-Based Biomass Instead of Gas Boiler” in Caeiras, Brazil, “Lady Plumbers Help Save Water” in Mexico, and “Clean Drinking Water for Schools and Households” in Uganda. In addition, we encourage participants from Europe to travel by train.
