This year, we're once again aiming to organise the Klimatag as a Green Meeting and make it as sustainable as possible. Please support us in this and opt for climate-friendly modes of transport when travelling to the event, such as
train, bus, or carpooling.
The event has been certified by the Centre for Global Change & Sustainability and meets the criteria of the Austrian Ecolabel UZ62 for "Green Meetings and Green Events".
All venues are well connected to Graz's public transport network (bus and tram).

The Klimatag 2016 aims to be organised in as climate- and environmentally friendly a way as possible.
This includes a climate-friendly buffet, as well as the eco-friendly printing of the
programme booklet and the easy accessibility of all venues by public transport,
bicycle, or on foot. Communication and the collective will to make a statement
also play an important role. The motto is: avoid and reduce climate-damaging greenhouse gases!
Any CO2 emissions still generated by Klimatag participants travelling to the event
will be offset by CCCA through the CO2 offsetting system of the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU).
Further information on the offsetting system can be found here.
All venues have a waste separation system in place, and we kindly ask you to
dispose of your waste using these systems.
If you have any questions about Green Meetings,
Benedikt Becsi (benedikt.becsi@boku.ac.at) will be available as your contact person before and during the conference.
