The environmental problems currently facing advanced industrial countries are not new, and will continue to grow if nothing is done. Some people believe that regulation can help to address these problems, while at the same time make industry more competitive. Others however believe that innovation, which is central to industrial development, should not be hampered, and that solutions to environmental issues can be best answered by industry. What is not in doubt is that the scale of development seen in the last few decades cannot continue at its current pace without adapting, due to diminishing natural resources and the impact on the environment.
This event will bring together researchers, academics and industrial experts in order to exchange and promote research and developmental activities.
