Join us on Wednesday 22 January at 6pm for a joint event with UCL and the Green Alliance Legislation and Governance Unit. This hybrid event will be held at UCL Faculty of Laws, followed by drinks and networking.
About this Event
Coming into power following a period of immense change in environmental law, our new government has significant economic and climate ambitions. It is time both to take stock of recent innovations in UK environmental law, and to look to the future. In this seminar, we will explore the ongoing implementation of the Environment Act 2021 as well as the diverse developments across the nations of the UK. We will also consider regulatory, including planning law, reform in the face of economic, infrastructure, climate and biodiversity challenges. This is the third event in a highly successful public event series on the major changes to UK environmental law since Brexit, bringing together academics, practitioners, government, and the civil society.
