Best Practice for Environmental
Champions
Climate change is one of the greatest social, economic and political issues
of our time. Thousands of organisations, aware of the affect they are having
on the environment, are acting on their responsibilities to customers, stakeholders,
staff and wider society, by seeking to reduce their carbon emissions. So
just as the Internet and e-business has changed the way we live and work,
‘green & lean’ is becoming a key attribute in the emerging
low carbon economy, in which the quest is for environmental benefits as
well as enhanced business success.
The Low Carbon Innovation Network, which brings together expertise
and experience from those involved in carbon reduction projects, are hosting
this one day seminar: Best Practice for Environmental Champions
