Preserving Nature Through Sport
CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / May 29, 2024 / Karbon-X (OTC PINK:KARX), a leading provider of carbon offset solutions, is proud to announce its partnership with the Banff Marathon to offset the environmental impact of the event. Through this collaboration, Karbon-X will neutralize the carbon footprint of the Banff Marathon, ensuring a more sustainable and eco-friendlier race.
The Banff Marathon, known for its breathtaking scenery and challenging courses, attracts participants from around the globe. Recognizing the importance of environmental responsibility, event organizers enlisted the expertise of Brightspot, a sustainability consulting firm, to measure the environmental footprint of the marathon.
Brightspot climate conducted a comprehensive assessment of the event, analyzing factors such as transportation, energy consumption, and waste generation. The findings highlighted the significant carbon emissions associated with hosting such a large-scale event in a pristine natural environment like Banff National Park.
To mitigate these emissions, the Banff Marathon turned to Karbon-X for a solution. Leveraging its extensive portfolio of verified carbon offset projects, Karbon-X used the data collected by Brightspot Climate and provided 956 VERRA carbon credits to offset it. These offsets represent investments in projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions, such as renewable energy generation or cookstove initiatives in the developing world.
"We are thrilled to partner with the Banff Marathon to support their sustainability goals," said Chad Clovis, CEO of Karbon-X. "By offsetting the environmental impact of the event with verified carbon offsets, we are taking proactive steps to protect the pristine beauty of Banff National Park and contribute to global climate action."
The partnership between Karbon-X and the Banff Marathon reflects a growing trend in the event industry towards sustainability and environmental stewardship. As more organizations prioritize eco-friendly practices, carbon offsetting has emerged as a practical and effective strategy for reducing environmental impact and promoting a more sustainable future.
"We are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint and the preservation of Banff National Park," said Paul Regensburg, Event Director of the Banff Marathon. "Partnering with Karbon-X to offset our carbon emissions is a crucial step towards achieving our sustainability objectives and setting a positive example for other events around the world."

Review of 31 Studies Finds Vegan Dog Food and Vegan Cat Food Are Well Digested30.7.2026 21:00:00 CEST | Press release
LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire / July 30, 2026 / A new scientific review has found that nutritionally sound vegan dog food, vegan cat food and vegetarian pet diets are generally well digested and broadly comparable to conventional meat-based diets. The review, published in the journal Animals, examined 31 existing studies assessing the digestibility of vegan, vegetarian and plant-based pet diets and ingredients in dogs and cats. Twenty-two studies focused on dogs, two on cats and seven included both species. The review found that across a wide range of study designs, dietary ingredients and digestibility measures, vegan and vegetarian diets consistently showed high digestibility and were not normally significantly less digestible than conventional meat-based diets. Digestibility is an important factor because it indicates how effectively animals can absorb and utilise nutrients from food. While modern commercial plant-based pet foods are generally formulated to provide all essential nutr

New GTDC Research Illuminates Distribution's Expanding Role in Modern Technology Ecosystems29.7.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
TAMPA, FL / ACCESS Newswire / July 29, 2026 / The Global Technology Distribution Council (GTDC), the world's largest consortium of technology distributors, today released a new research report, The Evolving Role of Distribution in Technology Go-To-Market Models, developed in partnership with Channelnomics. The study examines the shift in distribution from a traditional channel intermediary into a strategic operating platform that helps vendors and partners scale, increase support and overcome the complexities associated with innovation (i.e., AI and cybersecurity) and integration. According to the research, customer expectations are rising rapidly as organizations seek integrated outcomes across AI, cybersecurity, hybrid cloud, automation, analytics and managed services. Vendors and partners increasingly struggle to meet those market demands independently with solutions requiring cross-platform integration, multi-vendor coordination, lifecycle support and operational consistency.
