Proving the business case for managing your carbon
The UK is the first country in the world to have declared a "legally binding" target on greenhouse gas emissions reduction beyond 2020. “It will establish our competitive advantage in the most rapidly growing sectors of the world economy” Chris Huhne, May, 2011.
"Every unit of economic output will be produced using 1/10th of CO2 emitted today!"
This networking breakfast event will provide you with the knowledge you need to understand why carbon is of increasing importance to businesses and how to manage your organisational carbon effectively.
