Regina, SK – TheNewswire - May 21, 2024 – Carbon RX Inc. (“Carbon RX”) is pleased to announce The Hotel Saskatchewan, Autograph Collection by Marriott International, purchased carbon credits to offset the footprint of the 3rd Annual Global First Nations Carbon Summit, which will be held at its facility on September 24, 2024. The event host, Carbon RX, provided the certified credits generated by Saskatchewan farmers committed to regenerative agriculture practices aimed at reducing and capturing carbon dioxide, a harmful greenhouse gas, from the atmosphere.
“Our team diligently collaborates each day to minimize our environmental footprint,” comments Ashley Pelechytik, Director of Sales & Marketing at The Hotel Saskatchewan. “Our commitment to purchase carbon credits to offset the emissions of the Global First Nations Carbon Summit aligns with the values of our organization and the event itself. Knowing our purchase supports farmers in our local area is an added benefit.”
The emergence of the voluntary carbon market encourages businesses to voluntarily support practices through the purchase of carbon offsets in a global movement to reduce carbon emissions.
“We are seeing a rise in interest in carbon credits sourced from agriculture because of a shared interest in a sustainable food system utilizing regenerative farming practices,” adds Marty Seymour, CEO of Carbon RX. “The purchase of these carbon credits from Canadian farmers by the hospitality sector demonstrates a growing trend for organizations to support environmentally positive practices at a local level.”
The carbon credits were purchased at a price of $25 CDN and will be applied against the carbon footprint of the event.
