The essential environmental law conference for legal and regulatory developments including climate change, carbon reduction, environmental sanctions regime & cleantech
Developments that you need to act on:
Every organisation, regardless of size, sector or success, has environmental responsibilities that are legally binding. The risk of prosecution will only increase as the environmental agenda continues to gain ground around new government objectives.
The law and regulation relevant to the environmental sector is in the midst of dramatic changes. This looks set to increase with the newly formed Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government releasing the first details of its likely energy policy on the 12th May, entitled “The Coalition: our programme for government”. The paper has afforded us some more detail on the proposed energy policy but not enough for you to adequately plan for the environmental future of your business. This conference will clarify the legal developments in environmental law and help you prepare your business going forward.
