🌍 Sustainable Spotlight Friday #4 Environmental and Social Initiatives at Waregem Koerse 🐎 For our last Sustainable Spotlight Friday, we shine a spotlight on Waregem Koerse, one of the oldest events in Belgium. For its 2023 edition, Waregem Koerse set ambitious sustainable goals and adopted several initiatives to reach them. Let’s dive into two of these projects: • Environmental innovation: Partnering with Van Poucke Rental led to the adoption of 100% vacuum toilets, up from 50% in 2022. This change alone resulted in a significant 90% reduction in water usage for toilet facilities compared to traditional toilets. • Social impact: Under the guidance of Green Panther - Sustainable Events Consultancy and with key contributions from Bram Vandewalle, the event introduced the horse race 4Brain to raise awareness and support for brain disease research. The race gained national attention as it was broadcast live, showcasing how sports events can effectively combine excitement with meaningful social causes. At Circular Unity, we applaud Waregem Koerse for their dedication to both environmental sustainability and social responsibility. Their comprehensive efforts serve as a powerful example of how events can drive sustainable progress and create meaningful community impacts. Thank you for following our Sustainable Spotlight Friday series in celebration of Earth Month 💙 #CircularUnity #Sustainability #ClimateAction #WaregemKoerse #SustainableInnovation
