The International Association of Conference Centers (IACC) formed a Green Task Force to help educate IACC-accredited conference centers about environmentally friendly practices.
The task force, which is headed by Leslie Vanderzwet of the Banff Centre and T.J. Fimmano of Dolce International, is designed to teach conference centers, members and meeting planners how to conserve energy and other natural resources, increase recycling, use sustainable materials to reduce operational costs, and provide resources to develop their own green programs.
