The Workplace and the secret of Sustainability…(shhhhhh)
Morning seminar: 3rd November, eOffice, 20 Broadwick Street, W1F 8HT, London, UK
About 50 percent of the UK’s CO2 is generated by offices, so some serious attention needs to go into reducing energy in offices. But where should organisations be putting their focus...On sophisticated Energy Management solutions? or on getting people to change their behaviour to use workplaces better and reduce travel....
Our seminar is designed to establish:
- What are the relative benefits of different approaches to sustainability?
- Whether there is a link between space utilisation and energy consumed?
- Where organizations should we put their focus to get the 'best bang for their buck'?
We'll be answering all of these questions through a series of case studies and interactive discussions.
