Environmental Policy
Sustainability Committee · November 5, 2026, Casa Xipe, Mexico City
The AMEBIN 10th Anniversary Forum is organized under sustainability criteria. Learn about our environmental commitments.
The Sustainability Committee formally takes responsibility for planning, running and evaluating all of its events under a sustainable management model. We commit to integrating environmental, social and governance criteria into decision-making, ensuring strict compliance with applicable environmental legislation and pursuing continuous improvement to mitigate the negative impacts of our operations on the natural and social environment through the following specific criteria.
1. Governance and Sustainable Procurement
- 1.1Ensure that 100% of the organizing committees know and apply this framework.
- 1.2Give priority to suppliers with green credentials (e.g. circular economy or carbon-neutral certifications), and request their environmental processes and methods in advance.
2. Energy Management and Climate Change
- 2.1Power events with at least 60% of their total energy consumption from renewable sources or high-efficiency LED lighting.
- 2.2Measure the carbon footprint generated and offset, through certified schemes, 100% of the direct emissions from official travel and on-site electricity use.
- 2.3Reduce projected water consumption by choosing venues committed to water-saving fixtures in restrooms, and strictly prohibit single-serve bottled water for attendees and staff.
3. Circular Economy and Waste
- 3.1Reach a Zero Waste goal by diverting the waste generated to recycling or composting streams through sorting stations.
- 3.1.1Only select venues that have a waste separation-at-source system and that weigh the waste generated at the end of the event, as an essential requirement for hiring them.
- 3.2Eliminate 100% of single-use plastics in catering areas, replacing them with recyclable materials or reusable tableware.
3.3. Community Development and Social Impact
- 3.3.1Ensure that supplies and catering come from producers located less than 100 km from the event venue, thereby reducing the carbon footprint.
- 3.3.2Donate food not consumed during events to certified Food Banks.
