Science for the Green Economy

Increasingly, environmental issues are a nexus around which societal and business agendas are set. Executives need up-to-date understanding of the scientific and technological evidence base for business strategies and environmental policies. ‘Science for the Green Economy’ seeks to meet this need with timely seminars. Through this series, we aim to create a dynamic community of senior practitioners in global companies, Governments, NGOs, universities, scientific institutions and consulting firms.  Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies offer a feasible solution to reducing carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and reducing the impact of climate change. This seminar will discuss the status of CCS technologies and their importance in meeting the UK’s ambitious CO2 reduction targets. Expert speakers will outline current technology developments and the associated commercial opportunities and risks.
