Awesome to see this starting to happen in other areas of government...I knew it wouldn't be long! CDC had similar figures from our hybrid event last year. We saved a ton of money as well and had 1875 participants, reporting a near 100% satisfaction rating! Rough estimates for carbon footprint savings: 1,098,808 lbs (using the terrapass.com Event Carbon Calculator).

Rough estimate on how much our virtual-only attendees would have spent if they would have come to the in-person event instead: $779,507.

The Forest Service just saved $1 million by hosting a virtual conference - and they achieved 96% participate rates - definitely a model to replicate in other organizations:

I can't seem to find simple basic ballpoint ink refills for regular cheap pens.  Is that another issue like new printers being cheaper than buying the ink refills?  How can we deal with this issue???
