The Mayor wants London to become a world leader in waste management, utilising innovative techniques and technologies to minimise the impact of waste on our environment and to fully exploit its massive economic value. The ambition is for London to achieve 'zero waste to land-fill' by 2031 and yet we still lag behind many leading cities around the world.
Join us at this NLA morning conference to discover the opportunities and challenges presented by the Mayor's ambitious new London-wide targets. How is new technology changing the way London needs to plan for its waste? Where will the new facilities go and how do we retrofit what we have to make the targets achievable? And how can better public and private partnership unlock waste's significant value?
