PATA achieves carbon neutrality in 2024 through global offset initiatives

PATA has confirmed that all its activities in 2024 were carbon neutral, with emissions from events offset through projects in Cambodia, supported by Sustainable Travel International, and emissions from other operations, such as training, staff travel, and office activities, offset in Thailand through the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organisation.

Since 2022, PATA has been offsetting the carbon footprint of in-person events while applying emission reduction strategies in line with its Climate Action Plan and Carbon Neutral Events Guidelines. However, certain emissions, such as those from transportation, electricity use, and waste, remain unavoidable. To address this, PATA continues to support credible carbon offset projects while implementing strategies to minimise emissions, such as exploring sustainable event design, optimising digital solutions, and collaborating with venues and suppliers prioritising sustainability.
