Sustainability at the Democratic National Convention

The Democratic National Convention is a key opportunity for Democrats to tell our story to the American people, including the historic Biden-Harris record on climate action. As part of our commitment to sustainability, the Democratic National Convention Committee (DNCC) and the Chicago 2024 Host Committee selected two women-owned, Chicago-based firms, BRIGHT BEAT and PURPOSE, to serve as the Democratic National Convention’s sustainability advisors. 

Bright Beat and Purpose are developing and implementing a sustainability program for the convention, including a Convention Sustainability Guide and Attendee Travel Guidance. These efforts will ensure this is the most sustainable Democratic National Convention in history.
