Environment 09 is the Northwest’s major environment conference for 2009, organised by the Mersey Basin Campaign to celebrate its 25th and final year.
The secretary of state for the environment, Hilary Benn, will join the conference via a live video link from London, alongside high profile speakers including the government’s former chief scientific advisor Professor Sir David King, former environment minister Michael Heseltine and Bishop James Jones of Liverpool. The BBC’s Jim Hancock will MC the event.
There is also the chance to join us for a trip on a Mersey Ferry.
As the Campaign reaches the end of its planed lifespan, the conference will celebrate a quarter of a century of successful environmental action and mark a decade since the Campaign was honoured globally as inaugural winner of the World Riverprize.
The conference will look to the future that is rapidly unfolding - a Northwest Region that will be radically different over the next twenty-five years.
When: September 22nd, 2009
