The role of businesses in combating climate change and contributing to the transition to a low carbon economy is to be the centrepoint of a conference to be held in Cambridge next week.
Entrepreneurship for a Zero Carbon Society, organised by University of Cambridge MBA student Marisa The, will run at the Sidgwick Site from Septebmer 22 to 24.
Among the topics on the agenda will be the future of electric cars, the role of incentives and subsidies in boosting renewable energy and clean technologies and energy efficient cities.
Nick Butler, chairman of the Cambridge Centre for Energy Studies and former president of strategy and policy development at BP, will speak at the event.
He told FoodBev: "The transition will take us away from a carbon intensive economy in which we are dependent on supplies from difficult and unstable countries. The transition will require a unique combination of knowledge ¿ science engineering but also commercial and business skills. Cambridge is well placed to be at the heart of the transition, that is why this event is so important."
