Midlands Just like an individual, an institution also has an ecological footprint so at Twycross Zoo we are aiming to reduce our footprint as much as possible by becoming as sustainable as possible. The Zoo was founded 45 years ago and has grown from a few thousand visitors per year to half a million visitor visiting in 2008. This presentation will cover Twycross Zoo’s journey from an organisation that did little to minimise it’s environmental impact through to establishing an Environmental Management System and trying to tackle some of its biggest environmental aspects.all day
West Midlands | CPD Waste All businesses generate waste and have to store, handle and dispose of it on a daily basis. However, waste should no longer be thought of as something that is simply discarded and forgotten about. It should be thought of as a sustainable resource, which must be dealt with in a legally compliant manner. There are legal responsibilities on businesses, which continue to apply after waste has left their premises. Failure to adhere to these responsibilities, either knowingly, or unknowingly, can lead to stiff financial penalties, lost supply chain credentials or damaged customer reputation.1:00 PM to 4:45 PM (duration 3 hours 45 minutes)
