Green Travel Management: Still Critical

May 27, 2009




Though some companies are beginning to dial back efforts to offset their environmental impact in light of the current economic environment, many other organizations are moving full steam ahead and are as committed as ever to reducing their carbon footprints.


Within the past few years, questions about environmental impact and emissions have snaked their way into RFPs and suppliers of all stripes have taken to touting their green credentials, but incorporating green concerns into corporate travel buying can be a challenge in a difficult economy.


In addition, there remains a lack of consensus and standardization when it comes to measuring emissions, validating the effectiveness of carbon-offset programs and assessing suppliers’ green credentials, but environmentally friendly travel management remains an important goal of many travel managers.


Join Business Travel News for this interactive Web Seminar, sponsored by Amtrak, and learn from industry experts how you can be a key internal stakeholder in your company’s efforts to incorporate a more environmentally friendly travel management program.
