INVITATION: Prague Climate Talks: Sustainable consumerism – the way forward?
Prague Climate Talks is a project aimed at establishing a platform for continued high-level discussion on the complex issue of climate change. Throughout a series of debates it will bring together experts and professionals from varying relevant fields as well as members of the general public.
Can we, as consumers, change the world by switching to more climate-conscious environmentally sustainable habits? How much greenhouse gases would we save if we all became vegans? And how about if we all drove electric cars? Is corporate sustainability having the desired effects or is it just another case of "green washing"? And is mantra "reduce, reuse, recycle" working or do we need more actions by the governments to move forward?
Confirmed speakers:
- Josephine Mylan, Lecturer in Sustainability and Innovation, University of Manchester
- Jana Půlpánová, Founder, Envirostyl
- Roman Bojko, Sustainability Manager, IKEA
The debate will be moderated by Christian K. Lassen, EUROPEUM Institute for European Policy
