BusinessGreen.com has today extended its special offer to readers for the upcoming How Big Is Your Footprint? Carbon and the Future of Business Management lecture evening by one more week.
Readers now have until 5pm on Tuesday 14 September to take advantage of the special early bird offer of £35.
The evening of short lectures will take place on Wednesday 29 September at the London School of Economics Wolfson Theatre and will feature presentations from the Committee on Climate Change's chief economist Adrian Gault, Paul Simpson of the Carbon Disclosure Project, Leo Johnson, co-founder of Sustainable Finance and a partner at PwC, and Christopher Norton, partner at leading law firm Hogan Lovells.
Each of the lectures will address how carbon is redefining the role of modern accountancy, ask how and why firms should measure their environmental impact, and explore some of the management techniques progressive businesses are deploying to encourage executives to deliver against carbon targets.
They will also provide executives with a valuable insight into the carbon regulations for which they need to prepare, and how new rules can help their business save money and exploit new low-carbon business opportunities.
The lectures will be followed by an interactive question and answer session, and then networking and drinks.
