** Do you believe sharing is crucial to sustainable development? We do. For this reason, d-side is supporting One Laptop per Child Europe Foundation with an equivalent funding amount as the budget usually spent for printing and sending our traditional greeting cards.

One Laptop per Child is creating educational opportunities for the world’s poorest children by providing each child with a rugged, low-cost, low-power, connected laptop with content and software designed for collaborative, joyful, self-empowered learning. When children have access to this type of tool they get engaged in their own education. They learn, share, create and collaborate. They become connected to each other, to the world and to a brighter future.

We believe also that setting one more step on the way to a more sustainable world each day of this Year 2010 is key. Therefore we are happy to share our knowledge with you by delivering on this blog tips and tricks to communicate and organize more eco-responsible events. Tips are ordered by category. There aren’t exhaustive and will be updated regularly. As knowledge is one of the few resources that is growing through sharing feel free to share this information or any comment or additional tip by sending a mail to info@d-sidegroup.com.

d-side was entrusted by International Post Corporation to organise their Press Conference during the “Copenhagen conference” on climate change. For the first time, a service industry as a whole, commits – with all its members – to cut CO2 emissions by 20% in 2020. This includes major operators such as TNT, DHL, US Post, UK and French Posts… They deliver letters and parcels to more than 270 million households every year… That’s why they feel concerned by the necessity of the change.
