2023 EIG 1 Day Meeting
This CPD 1-day seminar was held on 14th September 2023 at the Stratford Manor Hotel, Warwickshire.
Approximately 120 delegates joined us for the event, 14 speakers delivered talks over three sessions with panel questions and discussions from the audience.
After an introduction, the day’s presentations and discussions centered around the following;
Too much or too little water!
Designing out CO₂
Design for biodiversity net gain
The speakers and programme is available in the EIG second circular Newsletter
The twin issues of climate change and biodiversity collapse are presenting the extractive industry with real physical, legislative, investment and social challenges. Each speaker offered an insite, case study or advice as to how, through quantification, early consultation and through forward thinking quarry planning and design, the industry can help position itself to meet these challenges, comply with current and future legislation, and deliver a sustainable business model.
As we are all aware the Quarries of the Future are being designed Now and the seminar was poignant in helping deliver resilient, viable and environmentally acceptable mineral sites that are essential to modern society.
The EIG Committee would like to thank all of the events sponsors and exhibitors for their support in delivering another successful and engaging seminar.
