Environmental Law Update: A Live Online Conference

Fri 28 Feb 2025 9:45 AM - 1:00 PM GMT Online, Zoom

Environmental law continues to evolve rapidly, shaped by critical legal decisions, ambitious policy goals, and growing global awareness of climate and ecological challenges. This live online conference provides a comprehensive update on a range of latest developments and perennial problems in this complex and dynamic field.

Join us for an in-depth exploration of key topics and landmark cases, including:

-Ecocide:  The emerging recognition of ecocide as an international crime and its potential legal ramifications.
-How to Build a Million Houses: Balancing environmental sustainability with the UK’s housing development needs.
-Sentencing for Environmental Crimes: Understanding the latest trends and guidelines in penalties for environmental offenses.
-Law of Waste Dumping: Examining the regulatory landscape and addressing key compliance challenges.

-Environmental Impact Assessments and Planning Law: Ensuring compliance and navigating legal complexities in planning decisions.
