Presentations and discussion of the theme was preceded by an introduction to EU Cohesion Policy and an address by Professor Norman Davies on the history of Europe.
The theme was given an authoritative introduction by Professor Sir David King, on The Hot Topic, and followed by Dr. Mayer Hillman on How we can save the planet.
A climate change study of London was followed by an introduction to the key EUCO2 8/50 METREX Project on metropolitan climate change mitigation.
