Once again this year, this will be an eco-responsible meeting in the sense that the Bank is making a concerted effort to reduce the environmental impacts of the event. Among the various actions to be taken in organizing this meeting is the calculation of greenhouse gas emissions generated in association with people travelling to and from the meeting.
