As part of our commitment to more sustainable events, we encourage our visitors to choose low-carbon modes of transport to reach their destination.
The choice of transport accounts for a significant proportion of event-related emissions. Opting for the train, public transport or carpooling can significantly reduce your carbon footprint.
To help you with this, we provide an official tool developed by ADEME that allows you to estimate and compare CO₂ emissions for different modes of transport:
This initiative is fully in line with the Palais’ DNA, consistent with our status as a Mission-Driven Company and our raison d’être: ‘to welcome the world in a sustainable way’.
It also aligns with our environmental commitments as set out in our standards and CSR policy.
Finally, it helps to strengthen our positioning and commitment within the framework of the Destination Innovante Durable (DID) label.
If any adjustments are necessary, particularly in terms of wording or editorial tone, Régis, please do not hesitate to let us know so that we can adapt it.
Thank you both for your help on this matter.
