In addition to the GoGreen tickets, here are more tips on how you can make your visit even more sustainable.
CO₂ emissions are released by the travel of our visitors. With the GoGreen Ticket, we are offering the opportunity to contribute to climate protection for the greenhouse gas emissions produced. This climate protection contribution of 3 EUR is invested in two high-quality myclimate climate protection projects that meet the highest standards (Gold Standard, Plan Vivo) and demonstrably make a positive contribution to sustainable development locally and regionally. Let us walk the path to a greener future together.
With your GoGreen climate protection contribution, you are actively contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and to sustainable development locally and regionally. Your contribution to climate protection goes directly into three high-quality myclimate climate protection projects, the development of which you can follow transparently.
As a green visitor, you will draw other visitors’ attention to the importance of climate protection and literally become an ambassador for the myclimate climate protection projects.
Become a role model and set an example for climate protection.

I support GoGreen and make an active contribution to climate protection for the CO₂ emissions of my journey to digitalBAU.
With your GoGreen ticket, you too can help reduce the greenhouse gas footprint of your visit to the trade fair.

The climate protection contribution is invested in high-quality myclimate climate protection projects that meet the highest standards (Gold Standard, Plan Vivo) and, in addition to reducing greenhouse gases, demonstrably make a positive contribution to sustainable development locally and regionally.
The overall objective of this climate protection programme is the installation of domestic biodigesters as a clean, sustainable energy source throughout India. The biogas generated from cow dung replaces fuels that are currently used for domestic energy needs such as firewood or kerosene.
Situation without project:
Using firewood and kerosene for cooking
Yearly CO₂ reduction:
54.217 t
Your support contributes to the following 10 Sustainable Development Goals:
SDG1 – No poverty
The use of slurry (organic fertiliser produced by the farmers themselves) helps to prevent small farmers from becoming dependent on chemical fertilisers, thus improving their families’ financial situation.
SDG 2 – Zero hunger
To date, the biogas systems have produced 204,904 tonnes of organic fertiliser and thus reduced 4,952 tonnes of chemical fertiliser, thus contributing to sustainable agriculture.
SDG 3 – Good Health an well-being
43,730 persons have benefited from better air quality since the start of the project.
SDG 4 – Quality Education
Because the time-consuming collection of firewood is no longer necessary, children have more time to go to school and do homework. This gives each family almost 3.5 hours of additional time per day.
SDG 7 – Affortable and clean energy
6,890 biogas digesters have been installed since the start of the project.
SDG 8 – Decent work an economic growth
87 permanent jobs have been created for the local population and more than 7,600 people have been trained in the use of biogas plants.
SDG 12 – Responsible consumption and production
The recycling of organic waste contributes to sustainable waste management.
SDG 13 – Climate Actions
Each biogas biodigester avoids 7.1 t CO₂ and reduced wood consumption by 5.7 t per year.
SDG 15 – Life on land
To date, the programme has reduced wood consumption by 218,388 tons and has thus saved 2,991 hectares of forest from deforestation.
The installation of domestic biogas plants substitutes the use of firewood and chemical fertilizers in the Karnataka region. In addition to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and less degradation of the forest people directly profit from higher crop yields and less indoor pollution. Moreover, the project will also reduce methane emissions from cattle manure.
Situation without project:
Using firewood and kerosene for cooking
Yearly CO₂ reduction:
45,650 t
Your support contributes to the following 11 Sustainable Development Goals:
SDG 1—No poverty
The use of slurry (organic fertiliser produced by the farmers themselves) helps to prevent small farmers from becoming dependent on chemical fertilisers, thus improving their families’ financial situation.
SDG 2—Zero hunger
To date, the biogas systems have produced 301,534 tonnes of organic fertiliser and thus reduced 6,130 tonnes of chemical fertiliser, thus contributing to sustainable agriculture.
SDG 3—Good health and well-being
50,000 persons have benefited from better air quality since the start of the project.
SDG 4—Quality education
Because the time-consuming collection of firewood is no longer necessary, children have more time to go to school and do homework. This gives each family almost 1.2 hours of additional time per day.
SDG 5—Gender equity
Only women are entitled to buy and own a biogas plant. This helps to level out the balance of power in the family and to strengthen the position of the women.
SDG 7—Affordable and clean energy
8,033 biogas digesters have been installed since the start of the project.
SDG 8—Decent work and economic growth
22 permanent jobs have been created for the local population and more than 8,000 people have been trained in the use of biogas plants.
SDG 12—Responsible consumption and production
The recycling of organic waste contributes to sustainable waste management.
SDG 13—Climate action
Each biogas biodigester avoids 6.5 t CO₂ and reduced wood consumption by 3.7 t per year.
SDG 15—Life on land
To date, the programme has reduced wood consumption by 221,054 tonnes and has thus saved 3,028 hectares of forest from deforestation.
SDG 17—Partnerships for the goals
The programme enables the transfer, dissemination and implementation of environmentally friendly technologies in India.
The international initiative with roots in Switzerland is one of the world’s leading partners for effective climate protection. With projects of the highest quality, myclimate promotes measurable climate protection and sustainable development worldwide. Their projects reduce emissions by replacing fossil energy sources with renewable energies, putting in place local reforestation measures with small farmers and implementing energy-efficient technologies. Their experienced consultants help companies in the field of CO₂ and resource management to identify and develop potential. So far, in the more than 140 myclimate climate protection projects, 13.46 million CO₂ have been saved, 18 million trees have been planted and 20,000 jobs have been created.
