Solutions Showcase, at the Miami Global Education Conference (May 6-8, 2007) will be
offering something green. ACTE will recognize those exhibitors who are showcasing
\"green\" solutions/tools/products. ACTE has been working on Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR) industry education since early 2005, including supporting green
technology and raising industry awareness of the issue of trafficking of women and
children. As part of its CSR efforts, ACTE has also provided education on how
companies can become better corporate citizens through company wide initiatives
including blood drives with local blood banks.

ACTE knows that many of our members have developed green tools for the industry, and
will be distinguishing those companies with a symbol in both the conference program,
as well as on their booth sign. The companies that will be recognized for their
\"Green\" efforts are:

. GetThere
. Travelocity Business
. Amadeus
. BCD Travel
. Carlson Wagonlit Travel
. KDS
. Rearden Commerce
. StarCite, Inc.
. TRX, Inc.
. ACTE Global Centre for Research & Education

ACTE is holding its second annual low-carbon conference in Miami through the support
of British Airways and is pleased to be providing three sessions on sustainability:
\'Sustainable Procurement: What is the Green Question?, \'Profiling Carbon Emissions
from Corporate Travel,\' and Carbon Emissions and Managed Travel: Cutting Through the
Smog.

ACTE executive director Susan Gurley commented that promoting \"Green\" solutions and
products was the natural next step of ACTE\'s CSR program, and is excited about
industry progress in the arena of \"Green\" solutions. ACTE\'s global education
conference in May will have in attendance over 1,100 senior-level executives, from
over 36 countries.
