ESTCON PARK

ESTCON 2010 has also embarked on a special Carbon Offset Project (COP) called “Save the Earth”, which helps to reduce the carbon footprint that is generated in the process of organising ESTCON2010. This is done by planting 260 trees at the ESTCON Park in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP) campus recently. 

In order to meet the objective of this project, we had focussed on reducing and reworking strategies to minimise carbon footprint in three key areas involved in organising the Congress,  that is air travel, paper usage and electricity consumption. Based on this, we have planted the trees to minimise or counter back the carbon emission level. Some of these trees were sponsored by the staff of the university. The sponsorship received for this congress has also been channeled to fund the tree planting activities.
