Carbon Neutral Event For the second time, The Vendies has become a certified Carbon
Neutral Event for 2024 embracing a growing trend in the industry. We were helped in this endeavour by our sustainability partners, Coffetek, Aqua Cure, and Boost Inc. By working with carbon reduction engineers and the Grand
Connaught Rooms, The Vendies was able to calculate all the carbon the event produced in order to purchase carbon offset credits in support of social enterprise Hydrologic in its drive to deliver safe drinking water to millions of Cambodians by providing them with ceramic water purifiers. In Cambodia, untreated water and poor sanitation cause an
estimated 10 million cases of diarrhoea and 10,000 deaths each year, mostly in children living in rural areas. To date, social enterprise Hydrologic has reached nearly two million Cambodians with its ceramic water purifiers. With a filter in their homes, families can drink safely. By no longer needing to boil water, indoor air pollution from wood burning is reduced, household fuel costs are slashed, time is saved for women and children, and Cambodia’s vulnerable forests are protected. The project creates rural employment opportunities in filter manufacturing and distribution. Women make up 47% of Hydrologic’s staff, including 60% of top-level managers and 60% of the rural sales force. Hydrologic also works with a microfinance institution to sell filters on credit, making them affordable for more Cambodians. The sale of Gold Standard carbon credits enables Hydrologic to continue researching and developing purifier technology and to train local producers and distributors, thus scaling up its positive impact.
Project impacts and benefits • 90,000 tonnes of CO2e saved per year (equivalent to taking 36,000 cars off the road)
• 600,000+ Filters distributed to date providing clean water to nearly two million Cambodians
• 74% of those who previously boiled water report less exposure to smoke
For every 1,000 carbon credits purchased • $30,000 savings by households on fuel purchase and collection* • 5 hectares of Cambodia’s forest protected* • 34 fewer cases of acute lower respiratory illness*
* Figures are based on data from Lord, R. (2014) Social Return on Investment of Nexus Carbon for Development Projects. This study calculated the co-benefits for Hydrologic using 2016–2017 data.
