Marzamemi Festival aims to conduct our activities and operations to reflect best environmental and sustainability practice and seek innovative ways of meeting environmental objectives through a commitment to continual improvement.
These include:
To meet and, where appropriate exceed all relevant UK, European and international legislative and regulatory requirements and agreements.
To review all our activities and operations in order to identify, understand and evaluate all the direct and indirect environmental aspects and effects, and prioritise action to address them.
To reduce energy and resource consumption.
To influence our suppliers to support sustainable practices.
To raise awareness of environmentally responsible practices.
To prevent pollution.
To prevent unnecessary and avoidable travel.
To avoid the use of toxic materials wherever possible.
To consider the sustainability issues behind all our actions, taking into consideration not just the environmental and economic effects, but the social and ethical implications in equal measure.
We aim to achieve these objectives by making incremental changes to the way we operate, through education and training of our staff and the general public and by developing a long term strategic plan to reduce our environmental impact.
