Morag White and Monique Towner will run an interactive session on pollution prevention and give their tips on how businesses can achieve a win-win situation by reducing their impact whilst at the same time reducing their costs.
These 3 speakers will be joined for a debate on how to create sustainable businesses in practice by:
