Carbon neutral conference: Carbon neutral conferencing is based on the Kyoto Protocol principles of emissions trading, and allows for the greenhouse gas emissions associated with conference activities (i.e. long distance and local travel and accommodations) to be offset through the purchase of emission reduction credits. Carbon neutral conferencing is not a substitute for emissions reduction activities, but it does allow conference organizers to offset those emissions that cannot be reduced through other means. 1, record 1, English, - carbon%20neutral%20conference

Conférence neutre en carbone : Les conférences neutres en carbone sont fondées sur les principes d'échanges d'émissions du Protocole de Kyoto et permettent de compenser les émissions de gaz à effet de serre associées aux activités d'une conférence (p. ex. longs voyages, déplacements locaux et hébergement) par l'achat de crédits de carbone. Les conférences neutres en carbone ne remplacent pas les mesures de réduction d'émissions, bien qu'elles permettent aux organisateurs de compenser pour les émissions qui ne peuvent pas être réduites autrement. 2, record 1, French, - conf%C3%A9rence%20neutre%20en%20carbone
