Growth and Climate Change - How do we achieve Green Growth?

11 March 2008 13:30-14:30 (GMT+00) - Public event, London

  • This meeting will look at whether it is possible to grow without exacerbating climate change. If so, how? If not, does that imply that developed countries must make much bigger cuts in carbon emissions to provide space for developing countries to grow? These are the issues being examined by The Rt Hon Hilary Benn MP, Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs along with Andrew Simms, Policy Director and head of the Climate Change programme at NEF's Centre for Global Interdependence. Chaired by Tony Baldry MP
