Climate Change Risk Assessment
Presentations
Chair: Nick Blyth - Kathryn Humphrey Kye Gbangbola |

The UK Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA) is a five yearly assessment of the current and future risks and opportunities to the UK from climate change. The assessment is a legal requirement under the Climate Change Act (2008). The first assessment was published in January 2012 and the second is due in January 2017. For this cycle of the assessment, an independent Evidence Report will be published by the Adaptation Sub-Committee of the Committee on Climate Change in summer 2016, and a Government Report published in January 2017 by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs that will respond to the ASC's advice. This webinar is to explain the process and approach to the ASC's evidence report, what it will cover, and how interested IEMA members can input to the process.
This webinar will be of general interest to all IEMA members and of specific interest to members whose work includes considerations of Climate Change impacts, Resilience or Adaptation. Following presentations and case studies the session will include a short Q+A

Richard Branson and Jochen Zeitz launch The B Team
LONDON, June 13, 2013 - The B Team, a global non-profit founded by Sir Richard Branson and Jochen Zeitz, revealed its starting line-up of business leaders today. They will work together to deliver a new way of doing business that prioritises people and planet alongside profit - a "Plan B" for businesses the world over.
The leaders joining The B Team founders Sir Richard Branson and Jochen Zeitz are:
The B Team will address three initial Challenges: “The Future of Leadership”, “The Future Bottom Line” and “The Future of Incentives” to help focus business away from short term gain and to balance the long term benefits for our people and our planet.
The initial "B Leaders" have been selected by a global network of advisors. They have come together as a group of committed business leaders to use their collective voice to help engage other leaders and will act as a catalyst to help deliver "Plan B". They will work with partners to break down entrenched barriers and ensure there is a clear way forward.
The B Team will address three initial Challenges: "The Future of Leadership", "The Future Bottom Line" and "The Future of Incentives" to help focus business away from short term gain and to balance the long term benefits for our people and our planet.
In a live online broadcast to over 500 gatherings in more than 115 cities around the world, The B Team Leaders also issued a joint Declaration today (bteam.org/about/declaration), acknowledging key global problems such as growing inequality, unemployment and the unsustainable use of natural resources. The group commits to accelerating a movement of leaders around the world driven by a better way of doing business.
"Today we want to start a global conversation on a "Plan B" for business," said co-founder Sir Richard Branson, "We are working with government agencies, the social sector, and business leaders to help get on top of some of the world's seemingly intractable challenges. We are keen to listen, learn and share with others to build businesses that do what's right for people and the planet."
"Business is integral to society, but it has also created most of the negative environmental challenges of this century," co-founder Jochen Zeitz said today, "The B Team will help to catalyse a shift away from the existing short-term, unsustainable mindset, towards the long-term interest of people, the planet and the wider economy. Tackling these three challenges is a starting point for a "Plan B" to form."
"The Future of Leadership" Challenge will seek to accelerate a new kind of inclusive leadership underpinned by a moral compass of being fair, honest, positive and creative (bteam.org/about/compass-beliefs). This is founded on cooperation and will be aimed at generating long-term value for society, the economy and the environment.
"The evolution of business leadership away from a focus on short-term profits is essential for the future generation of leaders," said Arianna Huffington. "We need a "Plan B" for the way business is managed, starting with leadership more committed to well-being, wisdom and sustainable business success. The only way to enjoy a long-term healthy bottom line is with a workplace that supports the well-being of employees. We want to accelerate that shift by putting the spotlight on business leaders at the forefront of this movement and connecting them with each other."
The "Future Bottom Line" Challenge seeks to accelerate a move away from single-minded financial "short-termism", towards a focus on the long term, and will aim to expand corporate accountability beyond financial gains to include negative and positive contributions to the economy, environment and society.
In driving forward the "Future of Incentives" Challenge, The B Team will work with partners to develop new corporate and employee incentive structures and to identify and map both positive and harmful subsidies. This will help to shift market and business behavior towards incentives that maximize social, environmental and economic benefit.
"Positive market incentives operating in the public interest are too few and far between, and are also up against a seemingly never-ending expansion of perverse incentives and lobbying," said Mo Ibrahim, "There are models that can help change this and we will work to create new incentives in dialogue with businesses, the social sector and governments."
The B Team will be holding a series of community events over the coming months. Input from stakeholders participating in today's global digital gathering will contribute to The B Team's plans for these first three Challenges and the formation of a comprehensive "Plan B" for business. The B Team is also encouraging the general public to submit their views on a new charter for better business at

A Special APPCCG Film Screening of 'Chasing Ice' (Presented by The Co-operative Group)
A special APPCCG screening of Chasing Ice, held in conjunction with The Co-operative Group. Acclaimed photographer James Balog was once a sceptic about climate change, but through his Extreme Ice Survey, he discovers undeniable evidence of our changing planet. Balog deploys revolutionary time-lapse cameras to capture a multi-year record of the world’s changing glaciers. His hauntingly beautiful videos compress years into seconds and capture ancient mountains of ice in motion as they disappear at a breath-taking rate.
Several countries border the Arctic region and melting ice has led to previously unallocated territory becoming a battleground to access oil, minerals and trade routes. Meanwhile, legislation is hazy or non-existent on port fees, oil-spills and access to minerals now available due to the melt. The film will be followed by a panel discussion focusing on what is happening to the Arctic; the regulated (or unregulated) activities that will happen as a result; the overall impact this could have on further emissions; and the legislation required for a controlled and sustainable ‘exploitation’ of the Arctic.

Why should I attend?
Each of the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) regional centres holds an AGM to review activities and progress made over the past year. Members also elect branch committee members for the coming year.
What will I achieve?
The AGMs provide an opportunity for members to have a say in the running of their regional branch. It is a chance to ask the committee any questions regarding the decisions and direction the CIOB will take in the future.
What can I expect?
AGMs are led by the relevant branch chairman, who reports back to members on matters such as funding, regional developments, the events and CPD programmes, staffing and membership. The AGMs take an informal approach and are often followed by a talk or presentation, a question and answer session, and a chance to network with friends and colleagues.
Who should attend?
AGMs are open to all members and non-members who wish to become involved and influence the direction of their regional office.

Total eco Management Guest Speakers:
TeM speaks at Parliamentary launch of CIOB CarbonAction2050.com CIOB Carbon Action 2050 is a much needed online resource providing practical carbon reduction solutions for educators and professionals working in the built environment. Carbon Action 2050 responds to the BIS LCC (IGT) Report providing 'Actions' and common, comparable metrics around which the industry can take forward its responsibilities for Change. The Parliamentary Launch was very well received by industry and Government as a way forward with the capacity to evolve and integrate a sector to deliver on the Climate Change Act 2008 and its respective Carbon budgets and requirements. I remain proud to be part of a sector rising to the challenge of broadening the metrics of success beyond profit to increase shareholder and stakeholder value, for the creation of a low carbon economy meeting the needs of generations to come. We invite all in the sector; nationally and internationally to participate and use www.carbonaction2050.com. According to Tony Baldy MP, former Parliamentary under Secretary of State in the Department of the Environment: "I would encourage people to register and to start implementing the CIOB’s Carbon Action plan and as Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Excellence in the Built Environment will circulate details to all Members of group so they too are aware of this very useful online facility." full source here >> |
