A New Environment: Overhaul Risk and Opportunities
This talk will examine the pervasive nature of the current explosion in environment/sustainability laws; innovative (but little understood) legal, commercial and technical principles embedded in the newest laws; the rise of clean technology; direct and indirect impacts on mature commercial sectors and the professions; the dangers of short term and narrowly focused thinking; the scope of opportunities and the latency of risk.
