The organizers of 21st ISIC and DECHEMA, as non-profit organisation for chemical engineering and biotechnology experts, are dedicated to the development of innovation that contributes to sustainability and well-being. We are striving to minimize the environmental impact of our conferences. Therefore we have committed ourselves to an effective use of resources, careful planning of catering services as well as promoting sustainable modes of transport.
For the 21st ISIC we have calculated the event-related emissions and DECHEMA already contributed a carbon offset to the projects of Atmosfair gGmbH. These projects aim to reduce CO2 emissions and support sustainable development by transferring technology and combating poverty.
As the calculated emissions do not include the means of transportations of the conference attendees, we would like to encourage you to minimize and compensate your travel emissions to Potsdam wherever possible. In case you are travelling by plane we therefore cordially invite to with Atmosfair. For all other attendees, please note the offer from Deutsche Bahn for reduced tickets to get to the conference.
