Introduction:
With increasing concerns about climate change, carbon footprint, and energy production, many things need to be clarified and understood concerning the subject.
This sustainable energy, carbon management, and environment conference will aim to clarify these misunderstandings by delving into the various forms of energy production, their environmental impacts, waste management issues, and the global challenges we all face in these areas.
With momentum shifting towards a low-carbon future, organizations must ensure their staff is knowledgeable and current, particularly in energy and environmental economics, what energy means in environmental science, and the intersection of energy and the environment.
The Role of Carbon in Environmental Health:
Whether carbon is terrible for the environment opens up a broad discussion on the impact of carbon emissions on ecological systems. This sustainable energy, carbon management, and environment conference will inform participants about carbon treatment methodologies such as activated carbon treatment, the design of carbon management degrees, and the benefits and effectiveness of carbon management as a tool for sustaining environmental health.
Targeted Groups:
- Energy Managers.
- Facilities Managers.
- Environment Managers.
- Environmental Representatives.
Conference Objectives:
By the end of this sustainable energy, carbon management, and environment conference, participants will be able to:
- Learn about various types of energy production, their advantages and disadvantages, cost comparisons, and which ones the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recommends.
- Gain an in-depth understanding of sustainability and the benefits of energy efficiency for both the environment and society.
- Get insights into the calculation of carbon footprints and the role of carbon management in achieving them.
- Explore the significance of Climate Change and why a global perspective with global input is vital.
- Understand why waste management issues and water availability are critical components of the environmental equation.
- Learn about Zero Waste and the benefits of an integrated Waste Management System.
Targeted Competencies:
By the end of this sustainable energy, carbon management, and environment conference, participants' competencies will be able to:
- Know of risk reduction associated with energy production and carbon management.
