The UK's green agenda - the outcomes of COP27 and actions since COP26
This webinar took place on Thursday 24 November 2022 and is now available on-demand. The content in this recording was correct as of the original webinar date.
Just over a year ago world leaders, policymakers, scientists and environmental activists gathered in Glasgow for COP26. Now many of those same people have also travelled to Egypt to attend this year's summit for what has been billed as “A moment of truth for the international community”.
In this webinar, Browne Jacobson's public law experts came together to discuss the outcomes of COP27 and review the UK's actions post COP26 in terms of:
- The Retained EU Law Bill
- The challenge to the Net Zero Strategy
- Failure to set out the targets for the 25-year Environment Plan as required by the Environment Act 2021
- Investment zones
This webinar is suitable for senior leaders across the public and private sector and those with specific responsibilities for the governance of their organisation's carbon neutral and green policies.
Individual's whose operational or strategic roles also impact the physical environment may also benefit from watching this on-demand video.
