3R Annual Seminar - Greenhouse Gas and Waste Management

This is the third annual seminar, organised by 3R, the Residual Resources Research PhD School.

This year, the theme of the seminar is greenhouse gas and waste management, emissions and mitigation. This is an important topic, as the waste management sector has a small but significant contribution towards anthropogenic climate change. The waste management sector can also play an important role in some mitigation measures. This technical seminar will present some of the findings from our 3R PhD fellows in the context of greenhouse gas emission and mitigation.

We are honoured to have three distinguished speakers:

• Dr Jean Bogner, Coordinating Lead Author (CLA) for the Waste Management chapter for the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4), Working Group III [Mitigation].
• Per Christensen, Professor at the university of Aalborg
• Jens A. Hansen, Professor (Em.) at the university of Aalborg and editor-in-chief of Waste Management and Research Journal
  

The IPCC and the UNFCCC are running the international conference of the parties (COP15) in Copenhagen and we see this technical seminar as an initial milestone towards the COP 15 next year.
