Guide to Planning Events with Responsible Resource Management

Planning an event while managing resources responsibly can be a real challenge. This practical guide developed by Retournzy Coop provides useful information and concrete steps to help you limit waste generation, encourage reusable alternatives, and improve materials management throughout your event.

It includes examples, checklists, and adaptable approaches to help event organizers make informed decisions that improve operational efficiency and reduce unnecessary waste.

Tourism GHG Footprint Calculator

Tourisme Durable Québec (TDQ) provides a greenhouse gas emissions calculator specifically designed for organizations in Quebec’s tourism industry.

Calculating your carbon footprint is an essential step toward better understanding the impact of our activities on the climate and recognizing our contribution to climate change. This tool will help you identify the main sources of emissions (Scopes 1, 2, and 3) for your organization and your events.

Video tutorials are available to help you get started with the tool and enable you to perform your calculations independently.

Circular Economy Toolkit for Tourist Accommodations

The Circular Economy Toolkit for Tourist Accommodations, provided by RECYC-QUÉBEC and the ministère du Tourisme, offers resources to support your circular economy initiatives and help you take action. It includes practical fact sheets, an action plan, policy templates, guides, and training on waste management.

Many of these resources are applicable to business tourism. In particular, you can consult the general fact sheets on circular economy (Fact Sheet 1) and information, awareness, and education (Fact Sheet 3), the fact sheet specific to food services (Fact Sheet 7), the responsible procurement guide, and the responsible procurement policy template.
