Climate Emergency and Decarbonisation: The Railway’s Response
PWI Technical Seminar
Members £85 Non-members £150 Students £10
Climate change and the consequent requirement to both adapt and decarbonise global society is the largest and most important issue facing humanity. Engineering and engineers have a critical role to play: in defining the policies and actions necessary to avert physical and societal collapse; and in working with government, other key disciplines and industry to win the arguments so that those actions are taken with the urgency necessary.
In recent months, the PWI has become more focused in this arena as it is of huge relevance to our community. The Manchester and Liverpool Section are therefore delighted to host a technical seminar on the subject of “Climate Emergency and Decarbonisation”. Delegates will hear from a range of speakers, from those dealing with understanding weather patterns and the implications for the rail network, through to projects which have provided sustainable long term solutions.
The industry is very much at a stage of gathering and sharing knowledge and experience on this important subject and this is a technical seminar that cannot be missed.
