LSE Sustainability in Practice Lectures Jan-March 2010

We were thrilled with the success of the Climb the Green Ladder lectures at the LSE in November and December. We felt very privileged to be the first two lectures in the LSE’s new Sustainability in Practice series.

This Sustainability in Practice series continues this term, and the LSE Environment Team have organised a fantastic programme with speakers ranging from Jonathan Porritt to Ray Anderson and Andrew Simms. For more information, read the full event programme or read a round up here.

Amy is going to many of them, so do drop her a line if you’d like to meet up to say hello afterwards.
