Report Launch - No Time To Waste: Resources, recovery & the road to net-zero

11.00-12.30

We are delighted to announce the launch of Policy Connect's upcoming report - No Time to Waste. 

The report explores residual waste policy and the future role of Energy from Waste, in the context of both net-zero and the COVID recovery. It is the culmination of a six month inquiry involving 50 organisations, and is supported by 12 cross-party politicians from across the House. Environment Minister Rebecca Pow will be launching the report, with a keynote address on residual waste policy, and the role of Energy from Waste. We will also hear from key stakeholders from Whitehall and industry, as well as learn about the experience from MPs who have EfW plants in their constituencies and communities. Please email Oliver.Feaver [at] policyconnect.org.uk for details on how attend this virtual event.
