Latvia - the 2nd greenest country in Europe!

Latvia is the second greenest country in the European Union, according to NimbleFins, a company analysing the environment and the greenery of European Union countries to rank them.

Latvia has been ranked as the second greenest country in the EU, largely due to an abundance of natural resources (freshwater and forests) as well as producing a relatively low amount of greenhouse gases per capita (6 tons per capita) and having the second-lowest consumption of nonrenewable energy in the group (1.4 tonnes of oil equivalent per capita).

Goal Events have great sustainable program solutions by reducing carbon, plastic and paper.

• Carbon reduction - electrical transfers, 60% of restaurants in a walking distance
• Plastic reduction – replacing 500ml water bottles with refillable bottles and water stations
• Paper reduction – Event App that includes program, roadbooks, menus etc.
• Cooperation with “First climate” to offset 100% of carbon footprint

We have updated our Internal Sustainability Policy by:
