FAQs: Sustainable Space Events
1. What is a “sustainable space event”?
A sustainable space event is an event that promotes space exploration, research, and development in a way that is environmentally responsible, ethically sound, and inclusive. These events focus on reducing the environmental impact, avoiding support for militarisation or pollutive initiatives, and encouraging positive contributions to Earth and humanity.
2. How do you ensure that the events you promote are ethical and sustainable?
We carefully screen all events before featuring them on our platform. Our criteria include a commitment to environmental sustainability, ethical practices, non-support of missile technology or weaponisation of space, and a focus on Earth-positive initiatives. We work closely with event organisers to ensure their values align with our mission.
3. What types of events do you feature on your website?
We feature a wide range of events, including conferences, workshops, webinars, and educational programs. These events cover topics such as space technology, environmental stewardship, space law, ethical exploration, and the role of space in improving life on Earth.
4. Why don’t you support events related to missiles or military initiatives?
Our mission is to promote the peaceful and sustainable use of space. We believe that space should be a domain for scientific exploration, international cooperation, and the betterment of life on Earth. Supporting military initiatives or missile technology contradicts our commitment to a peaceful and sustainable future.
5. What does “Earth-positive” mean in the context of space events?
“Earth-positive” refers to events that not only avoid harming the environment but actively contribute to the well-being of our planet. This could include promoting technologies that mitigate climate change, support environmental conservation, or enhance our understanding of Earth through space-based research.
6. How can I be sure that an event is inclusive and accessible to all?
We prioritise events that are committed to inclusivity and accessibility. This means they should be open to diverse audiences, including underrepresented communities, and should provide accommodations for people with disabilities. We review event details to ensure they meet these standards before promoting them.
7. Can I submit an event to be featured on your website?
Yes, we welcome submissions for events that align with our mission of promoting sustainable, ethical, and Earth-positive space activities. Please fill out our event submission form, and our team will review it to ensure it meets our criteria.
8. How does attending a sustainable space event benefit me?
By attending a sustainable space event, you are supporting initiatives that prioritise the health of our planet and the ethical exploration of space. You’ll also gain knowledge, make connections, and contribute to the growing movement of responsible space enthusiasts and professionals.
9. What actions do you take to minimise the carbon footprint of your own operations?
We are committed to minimising our environmental impact by hosting virtual events when possible, using energy-efficient technologies, and offsetting any necessary travel-related emissions. Additionally, we partner with venues and suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability.
