1. Use LEDs
Lighting is one of the most obvious ways an event consumes energy, and a growing number of technologies offer more earth-friendly solutions. While long-life fluorescent bulbs are replacing traditional incandescent lights in consumers' homes, this isn't a practical solution for most event planners.

LED lights, on the other hand, win raves from lighting and event specialists for their convenience and low energy usage. An LED fixture of comparable brightness uses up to 80 percent less energy than its conventional counterpart. "Obviously the big savings is electrically, but one of the other things about lighting is that out of all of the aspects to an event, it has the least amount of waste, because you're dealing with fixtures that are usually rented," says Ira Levy of Levy Lighting in New York. Another perk of LED lights is that the lights themselves come in every color of the rainbow, so there's no need to set up huge (and labor-intensive) rigs with films if you want a multicolored look.

"LED lights are a lot brighter for a lot less wattage," says Benjamin Jervey, author of The Big Green Apple: Your Guide to Eco-Friendly Living in New York City. "A five-watt LED bulb will simulate the light from a 75-watt LED light, and that same five-watt bulb will last a lot longer."

Hassle Factor: LEDs are a no-brainer when it comes to green cred, and using them for an event is a simple request for most lighting companies.
