You Aligned the Time – But What About the Place?

Let’s say your global team is spread across New York, Paris, and Singapore.
You use a time zone planner and find a time that works. Success?
Not quite.
Because everyone still has to fly for 10+ hours.
And that means: high costs, huge CO₂ emissions, and tired, unproductive participants.

Time isn’t everything.
The real question is: Where should you meet?

Why Time Zone Planners Only Solve Half the Problem

Tools like World Time Buddy or meeting time zone planners are helpful – but only up to a point.
They help you coordinate across time zones.
But they don’t answer:

  • Which city is best for everyone?
  • Who travels the furthest?
  • What’s the impact on emissions and cost?

That’s where most global meeting planning goes wrong.

Data Speaks – And It’s Often Shocking

Example:
A team from New York, Paris, and Singapore decides to meet in London.

  • Travel emissions: ~60 tons CO₂
  • Cost: €18,000+

Now compare it with the same team meeting in Dubai:

  • Emissions: ~27 tons CO₂
  • Cost: €9,000
  • Total travel time saved: ~40%

Same team. Same agenda. Different location – totally different impact.
