B4E Business for the Environment Global Summit 2009

The world stands on the brink of an economic and environmental disaster. Climate change, food shortages, rising fuel costs and global recession are having a devastating impact on nations throughout the world. Never before has humankind faced such a threat.

But there is hope. By driving forward the transformation towards a low carbon economy, governments, businesses and the public sector can play a crucial role in ushering in a new era – one with innovation, technology and sustainability at its heart.

B4E, the Business for the Environment Global Summit, is the leading international conference focusing on business and the environment. Now in its third year, B4E 2009 will highlight the most urgent environmental challenges facing the world economy today, asking what needs to be done to turn crisis into opportunity.

CEOs and senior executives from leading global companies will join leaders from government, international agencies, NGOs, and other organizations to discuss resource efficiency, green jobs, renewable energy, new business models and climate strategies. Delegates will learn how to identify and manage the risks posed by climate change and explore the commercial and political benefits of investing in a green economy.
