'Finally, a
book that gathers all the knowledge about running a sustainable event and
presents it in one easy to understand, well thought out format. Possibly one
of the most important books written on event management this decade, and a
must have for organisers of events everywhere.'
Matt Grant, Festival & Creative Director,
Peats Ridge 2009, Australia
'This truly practical guide
offers easy to understand education and achievable initiatives to any
industry practitioner looking for solutions where little has been previously
documented or available.'
Jane Fullerton-Smith, Director, Sustainable Event Solutions
'I had already
been committed to bringing about a change in the perception of festival-goers
towards their impact upon the environment, but Meegan successfully made that
change happen...this book explains in a wonderful explanatory manner how
every event can move towards our common goal -- sustainability!'
Melvin Benn, Director, Festival Republic
'The
most authoritative, meticulous and informed book on sustainability in the
events sector. Meegan Jones has more experience in this field than perhaps
anyone else in the world and this is evidenced on every page. Thoughtfully
and logically laid out this is an indispensable guide to reducing
environmental impacts and positioning festivals as trail blazers in
sustainable living.'
Alison Tickell, Director, Julie's Bicycle
