The AB CLRA Board is working to achieve a Carbon Neutral event status for our Conference & AGM. We are working with Explore Edmonton to understand our greenhouse gas emissions and to find ways to make a difference.  We are requiring transportation information from you so that we may offset these emission producing activities related to the event.  We will be presenting this information at the Conference as well as identifying what we can do in our everyday lives for sustainability with regards to emissions.  

To offset your carbon to travel to the Conference, please consider adding $10 to your registration fee.  The money from your carbon offset donation will be donated to Project Forest for one of their initiatives of tree planting/re-wilding of abandoned/neglected Alberta landscapes.  
NOTE: In order to ensure that the AB CLRA Conference has hosted a Carbon Neutral event, the AB CLRA Board will be topping the donation amount to Project Forest for each registered delegate (if required).
