Welcome to the Conference Footprint Calculator!

This tool helps you estimate the environmental footprint of your customer’s conference or event.

What It Does

• Calculates the environmental impact (CO2, energy, water) from hotel operations and your food and beverage choices.
• Compares the event's footprint to everyday examples to make it easier to understand.
• Creates a professional report you can share with your customers.

How to Use It

1. Fill in Conference Details: Start by selecting the hotel and entering the number of participants, days and nights for your event. Adjust per-day or per-night counts if they differ.
2. Choose Food & Beverages: For each day, select the meals, drinks, and break snacks you plan to serve.
3. Generate a Report: Click the "Report" button to customize and create a PDF summary of your event's footprint:
   • Add the name of the organization / company
   • Add a title for the event if relevant
   • Select the dates for the event
   • Click “Generate Report”

Power Up with Templates

Templates save you time by letting you save and reuse your Food & Beverage setups. Click the "Templates" button to get started.

My Templates

• To Save: After setting up your meals (note: it’s recommended to only add meals, not participants or portions), go to Templates (or click T) and give your current setup a name, which chain it applies to then click “Save as New Template”. The Template is then added to My templates which you’ll find in the “Select Template” drop-down menu.
• Note: only you can see, edit or delete your “My templates”
• To Load: Choose a pre-made or saved template from the list to instantly apply it to your event. There are two ways to do load a template:
  • Load & replace: this replaces all any selections already made.
  • Load & add: this adds the content of the selected template to any selections already made. Useful e.g when you want to add a break package to a custom setup.

Global Templates

• Global templates are templates that have been created with the purpose of being used by multiple or many hotels. E.g if all Norwegian Quality hotels have the same break setups. Templates can be exported and uploaded to our google drive folder for templates to be included in Global Templates. Global Templates must be approved by the F&B team.
• To export: select the template you want to export from “My Templates”
• Make it a global template: Click “Export Selected Template”. A file (starting with the template name and ending with .js - e.g “1 day break template Quality NO.js” will now download to your computer. Upload the file to this folder and send an email to wecare@strawberry.no.

Template Examples:

• Standard Full Day: Create a template with your hotel's most common setup, like a morning coffee break, a standard lunch, and an afternoon snack. Load this for any typical all-day event.
• Meat-Free Menu: Design a template that only uses vegetarian or vegan dishes for a "Meat-Free Monday" or for clients who prefer plant-based options.
• Simple Break Setup: If you often host events with just coffee and tea breaks, save a simple template with only those items for quick and easy calculations.

Keyboard shortcuts: Press T for templates, R for the report window, and Esc to reset the calculator (when no pop-up is open).
