About
Sustainability
AGU continues to work to reduce the environmental impact of its events, including providing the programming schedule via app, reducing paper, using compostable cups and serve ware, vegetable-based containers for foodstuffs; deploying the most sustainable choices for carpet and other building supplies on-site; and encouraging attendees and staff to use public transportation or walk to events.
Moscone Center
The Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco is at the forefront of green meetings through their implementation of energy-saving practices, gallons of water reclamation, low carbon emission, recycling and composting initiatives. The intent of these sustainable programs is to promote and support operational and business practices which lessen adverse environmental impact, benefit the local community and make economic sense.
