I generally opt to abstain from conferences, even if my employer is willing to foot the bill.
I'm unlikely to learn anything from the conference that I couldn't learn on the web, and almost certainly not enough to justify the expenditure of time.
Plus, a round-trip flight crossing a couple of time zones would probably double my carbon footprint for the year.
