Does Global Market Instability Challenge Green Growth – London Meeting Arranged

Monday, 03 Mar, 2008 0

Many believe that a downturn in the global economy would prove to be severely damaging to corporations’ efforts to respond to climate change. Against the context of fluctuating markets, some commentators question whether the business community’s interest in climate change and other sustainability issues may be diverted into other areas.

There are, however, those that argue that a downturn might have benefits. Efficiencies are suddenly a lot more interesting and energy (and other resource) consumption will undoubtedly be scrutinised as business positions for more uncertain times.
Staff, customers, media increasingly believe in global warming.

“How to keep Climate Change response at the top of the corporate agenda” has been arranged to take place at 5pm to 7pm, Wednesday 5th March 2008 at One Silk Street, London EC1 to explore how current market conditions may develop and how they might manifest in the Green space.

Top level speakers include:

Roger Harrabin, Environment Analyst – BBC
Tom Burke CBE, Environmental Policy – Rio Tinto
Nick Coad, Head of Group Environment Strategy – National Express
Mark Campanale, Associate Director – London Bridge Capital
Chris Coulter, VP – Globescan
Maggie Brenneke, Director, Skoll Social Enterprise Program – SustainAbility
Vanessa Havard-Williams, Partner, Head of Environment Group – Linklaters

Major Travel Companies booked to attend include – Eurostar, National Express, Rainforest Foundation, Virgin Rail.
