Join this Impact Assessment webinar to hear from key practitioners discussing the use of the Mitigation Hierarchy in Environmental Impact Assessment
Nature markets are emerging in the UK as a way to deliver environmental policy objectives such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and nature recovery.
This webinar provides information on:
- how the different benefits of nature can be packaged and sold in markets, using practices known as bundling and stacking, and
- how this can affect financing of environmental outcomes and the robustness of nature markets
- the pros and cons of both bundling and stacking
- recommendations on good practice
This webinar supports the publication of a new paper for IEMA members ‘Stacking and Bundling in the Finance of Nature Markets’.
Join this open and informal session for the opportunity to virtually connect with other members of all levels, expand your network, discuss topical issues, or simply take some time out to meet with like-minded individuals. There is no agenda, so join for the whole hour or just ten minutes, this session is designed for you! Book your place today!
Terra.do, a strategic partner of the Green Careers Hub, is on a mission to build the world’s largest platform for climate work, aiming to mobilise 100 million people to work directly on climate issues within this decade. In a rapidly changing world, over half of the global GDP is undergoing transformation due to climate effects, disrupting sectors such as energy, transportation and agriculture, while also reshaping finance, construction and manufacturing. Recognising the scale of change ahead, Terra.do is committed to preparing at least 1% of humanity for this challenge.
Presented by Benjamin Bolton, Head of Europe at Terra.do, this session will share valuable insight on how individuals can transition their careers to work on climate solutions. Participants will learn about the climate jobs landscape and common (perceived) barriers to entry, as well as resources and tips for landing a climate job.
Join the webinar to discover:
- the types of climate roles in the market
- how your skills are needed; everyone has a role to play
- advice on how to land your perfect role, including networking and building a community
This online session will last for 1 hour, with time built in for questions.

The interconnected nature of organisations, sectors and the environment can allow the effects of climate change to cascade and accumulate. For example, along supply chains, via energy or transport infrastructure, or between those that are co-located.
This webinar will use examples to illustrate the issue of ‘interdependencies’ as it relates to climate change adaptation.
Example 1: Anytown. A project led by London Resilience that brought together sector experts and practitioners from London and beyond to discuss the potential implications of disruption to infrastructure. Presented by the London Climate Change Partnership.
Example 2: Environmental constraints in Industrial clusters. An EA led project to investigate constraints including from water availability and flooding on the cumulative deployment of carbon capture and hydrogen technology in the Humber and Teeside industrial clusters.
Delegates will gain an understanding of how interdependencies affect the nature and scale of physical climate risks and an appreciation of the need for new ways of engaging and collaborating.

In July 2023, Defra announced the ‘Main EPR Regulations’ have been deferred coming into force until 2025, resulting in the existing Producer Responsibility Regulations remaining in place through 2024. The delay has changed the landscape and subsequent reporting requirements since our last EPR clinic.
This means that the 2024 compliance year will be slightly different than planned. This webinar, will demystify the next few years of packaging compliance and EPR implementation, providing advice on how you can prepare your business.
The key aims of this webinar include:
- Provide a full update on the deferral of some EPR elements and explain how packaging compliance will work in 2024
- Explanation of actions producers can take to meet data submission requirements and the subsequent financial impacts of achieving compliance
- Explain how the EPR financial obligation of modulated fees will work & be calculated for producers, as well as exploring how producers can increase packaging recyclability to reduce their future EPR costs
This session will be run by Beyondly, an environmental consultancy and compliance scheme. We will be hearing from Regulatory Affairs Leader and Packaging Scheme Forum Chair, Emma Wilkinson (AIEMA) and Resource Efficiency Consultant,
Charlotte Davis (AIEMA) who will help demystify the next few years of packaging compliance and EPR implementation, and provide advice on how you can prepare your business.

Hydrogen technology is one of the low carbon solutions that will be critical for the UK’s transition to net zero. Transitioning to hydrogen will allow us to build a cleaner, greener energy system while creating thousands of new, well-paid jobs. That's why we’re using our decades of experience to help kickstart the hydrogen economy - creating a more stable energy supply and helping our customers be net zero by 2050. At Centrica Business Solutions, we’re doing everything we can to drive the hydrogen revolution forward and we’re ready to support organisations in beginning their hydrogen journeys – for a zero carbon future.
The aim of this event is to bring together those who are interested in learning about low-carbon hydrogen technology, how it can be integrated into a net zero roadmap, whilst playing its part to support the UK’s transition to decarbonisation. We’ll also have 2G Energy Ltd join us to showcase how the hydrogen CHP (combined heat and power) technology works.
