BUILDING SUSTAINABILITY DEBATE: 9AM, 17TH NOVEMBER 2008 (PRE-CONFERENCE, INVITE ONLY) 

Having held two successful and lively Think Tanks breakfast seminars in February and May we have decided to follow them up with the Building Sustainability Debate, an exclusive session to which the leaders in sustainability will be invited personally by Phil Clark (Building Magazine).

This one-hour session will be a ‘Sustainability Question Time'. A panel of leading industry figures will tackle a range of pertinent issues for those greening the built environment, including: Can sustainability survive in a recession? Are clients fully embracing sustainability? What is a good payback for a green initiative? How can business co-operate more closely to drive change?

 

All attendees to the Economics of Sustainability Conference will automatically be able to attend the Sustainability Awards on the evening of the 18th November 2008.
