The late Miek Egberts, founding chair of the committee, with her poignant beliefs in Sustainability, propelled this committee to start advocating Sustainability Principles to our global chapters. Her passion for the balance between humans and mother nature along with enthusiastic committee members as Ambassadors &amp; Mentors together inaugurated the SITE Sustainability Chapter Certification. The certification process was created as an internal guide &amp; process to bring about awareness of our industry\u2019s global impact.<\/p>    <div style=\"font-size:\" class=\"wp-block-site-global-accordion-content-block\"><div class=\"accordion-item\"> <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading accordion-title-heading\">Mission &amp; Vision<\/h3>    <p><strong>Our Mission:<\/strong> To advance sustainability awareness and certification for incentive travel &amp; motivational experiences with SITE Global Chapters, communities, and members.<\/p>    <p><strong>Our Vision: <\/strong>To be the leading industry voice for sustainability transformation of incentive travel &amp; motivational experiences through the implementation of standard practices in planning and delivering events that support environmental, societal and economical endeavours, locally, regionally and globally while promoting our pillars of people, planet, purpose and profits.<\/p> <\/div><\/div>    <div style=\"font-size:\" class=\"wp-block-site-global-accordion-content-block\"><div class=\"accordion-item\"> <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading accordion-title-heading\">Our Purpose<\/h3>    <p>To create a global community and advocate global citizenry by educating the incentive &amp; motivational industry to reduce carbon &amp; water &amp; food footprint, lower the impact of climate change and positively impact environmental, societal, and economic endeavours, locally, regionally and globally.&nbsp;<\/p> <\/div><\/div>    <div style=\"font-size:\" class=\"wp-block-site-global-accordion-content-block\"><div class=\"accordion-item\"> <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading accordion-title-heading\">2024 Update from Committee<\/h3>    <p>Our SITE Sustainability Community celebrates its 5th Anniversary this year. It has been a journey of learnings, realizations and insights for the volunteers and chapters over the years.&nbsp; We are thrilled that our 2023 year met its many goals, perhaps the more significant milestones is the Sustainability Chapter Certification of ALL the existing global chapters and the awareness that our community exists, and we commit to providing on-going support to our SITE Global Community and beyond.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>    <p>This year, 2024, we have raised the bar for even more exposure through our web page, our key communication outlet, by means of providing over the next several months, relevant, meaningful and practical material, such as articles, white papers, recorded webinars, recommended NGO&#8217;s and Organizations (with a key focus on Sustainability)&nbsp;and Education Initiatives where will be sharing the stage at Global Conference 2024 and IMEX Frankfurt plus a live Webinar in Q3.<\/p>    <p>At Global Conference, during our Interactive Gathering we engaged in insightful discussions and exchanged ideas with roundtable topics including<em>&nbsp;Sustainability Strategy<\/em>&nbsp;with Courtney Lohman,&nbsp;<em>CSR Events<\/em>&nbsp;with Katrin Naumann and Kate Cardoso,<em>&nbsp;Measurements<\/em>&nbsp;with Tanya Wick and&nbsp;<em>Hotels&nbsp;<\/em>with Kim Napolitano and Harith Wickrema; our Frankfurt Session will be a grassroots approach focusing on the Sustainable &#8220;6Rs&#8221; Rule:&nbsp;<strong>Rethink, Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Repair. &nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>    <p>SITE has added two new chapters, Northern California and Arabia. Our team will be working diligently with these chapters so they will receive the Sustainability&nbsp;Certification by the end of 2024. As the chapters have had their Sustainability tutoring through the certification process, a blueprint is now being created to recommend on-going practices to install&nbsp;Sustainability mindset in each Chapters&#8217; DNA.<\/p>    <p>Earth Day is quickly approaching on April 22.&nbsp; However, the Sustainability Community sees it a &#8220;Every Day is Earth Day&#8221;.&nbsp; In 2023, we initiated a lofty goal for Earth Day, a veritable Global Plant-Based E-Cookbook. We are proud to launch it in March along with our 2024 initiative and recommendations.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p>And we continue to &#8220;walk the talk: of our Purpose Statement: To create global communities
