Birba is proud to announce that as part of their upcoming Oman Climate Week event, they are not only driving important conversations about sustainability but also taking meaningful action. In preparation for the event, Birba is taking steps to measure their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across the entire life-cycle of the event, demonstrating their commitment to environmental accountability. To achieve this, they’ve partnered with Three Pillars Consulting and are utilizing ClimateTab (A Three Pillars Consulting Product), to track, measure, and manage the emissions of the entire event.
Abdullah Al Harthy, Founder and Executive Chairman at Birba said, “Hosting Oman Climate Week is not just about fostering important conversations; it’s about demonstrating accountability and leading by example. By measuring our emissions with ClimateTab, we’re ensuring that we take responsibility for our environmental impact and showcase our commitment to sustainability. This partnership with Three Pillars Consulting shows our shared commitment to building a greener future.”
Dr. Michael Tsang, Founder and CEO of Three Pillars Consulting said, “we are excited to be working with Birba and support their initiative to not only hold an event on the topic of decarbonization, but to start assessing and planning to decarbonize their own events like Oman Climate Week.” Conferences and events have a myriad of different emission sources, including everything from the flights and transport of guests to the meals, hotel accommodations, and energy used by the event facilities. Michael went on further to explain, “ClimateTab™ enables Birba to transparently and robustly monitor and calculate all of these emissions in one platform, while our team of experts have prepared a detailed decarbonization roadmap to ensure that their future events mitigate as much energy consumption and GHG emissions as possible”.
