Coinciding with
Green Carbon's one year anniversary (which also happens to be St Patrick's Day) since the official launch of Green Carbon,
March 17th was the perfect opportunity to bring together current customers,
potential customers and business partners. The event was aptly named "Carbon
Friendly Drinks", as the estimated carbon emissions of the attendees travelling
to and from the event are offset, thus minimising the impact of the event on the
environment.
The event was a
great success made possible not only because of the fantastic venue, but also
the panel of guest speakers. The Wharf which is one of several venues owned by
The Orange Group who are a client of Green Carbon, is located at Northcote Point
on the North Shore with a breath taking view of the Auckland Harbour bridge. It was the
perfect setting for 'green minded' people to mingle and share their experiences
of their carbon journey or sustainable business endeavours.
Amongst
the businesses who attended included:
- Clarkson
Electrical, a nationwide electrical services and support company (www.clarkson.co.nz)
- Eventfinder,
online nationwide events web portal provider (www.eventfinder.co.nz) -
Insurer Services, insurance brokers (www.i-s.co.nz) - URS, global
environmental engineers & consultants (www.urscorp.co.nz)
- NZ Fresh Cuts,
sustainable & innovative fresh foods (www.nzfreshcuts.co.nz)
- Idealog, NZ
Business innovation and ideas magazine (www.idealog.co.nz)
just to name a few.
It simply reflects the diversity across industry sectors who are taking a serious look at what they can
do about climate change.
  Green Carbon believes that now is the time to take action and are poised to help businesses, large and small on their journey.  The
