May 28 2010 - 8:05AM
Green Globe International, Inc. (Pink Sheets:GGII), the worldwide
owner of the Green Globe brand, today announced international
events featuring the Green Globe brand, including a Green Globe
Certification World Summit, starting today and running through May
31st in Kassel, Germany, and the World Travel & Tourism Council

Beijing, China from May 25-27.
The Green Globe World Summit brings together licensees,
partners, auditors, affiliates as well as other parties interested
in becoming involved with the Green Globe Certification program. In
June of 2009, Green Globe Certification held a Summit in Alicante,
Spain. The 3-day event brought all European-based Green Globe
sales personnel, consultants and independent auditors together in
order to provide clear guidelines, sales and marketing structure
and additional information on Green Globe standards. Detailed
information on the Green Globe Certification World Summit,
including the program and featured topics and speakers can be found
at http://www.greenglobe.com/worldsummit.html.
Green Globe will also be represented at the 10th World Travel
& Tourism Council (WTTC) Global Travel & Tourism Summit in
Beijing. Present for Green Globe at the event, which is the
foremost gathering of global travel and tourism leaders, will be
Charles Kao, former director of Green Globe International and owner
of TravelMole, the most highly acclaimed and largest global online
community for the travel and tourism industry. The WTTC, the
business leaders' forum for the travel and tourism industry, is a
5% common stock owner of Green Globe International. The
announcement naming Beijing as the site for the WTTC Global Travel
& Tourism Summit can be found at

"As the premier international green brand, Green Globe programs
will regularly organize and participate in important events around
the world," said Steven R. Peacock, CEO and Managing Director of
Green Globe International. "These events will not only educate
those already involved or interested in Green Globe programs, but
will also increase awareness in areas where sustainability and
Green Globe's leadership role in spreading the word about the
importance of operating as sustainable businesses, organizations
and individuals is relatively new. Green Globe International,
as owners of the brand, will continue to support these initiatives
wherever and whenever they are held."
The Green Globe brand and program, which traces its roots back
to the United Nations Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit in 1992, where
182 Heads of State endorsed the Agenda 21 principles of Sustainable
Development, has primarily been used in the travel and tourism
industry but is now being expanded to include a growing number of
environmentally responsible businesses in a variety of market
sectors. The Green Globe brand is an ideal symbol for the world's
increasing awareness of environmental responsibility and response
to global climate change.
