Environmental benefits of new waste management facilities in Manchester, UK

  • London
  • Institution of Civil Engineers

In 2002, the Greater Manchester Waste Disposal Authority drew up a long term strategy for improving recycling rates, providing waste processing and achieving resource and energy recovery. This strategy recognises the imperative to reduce disposal of biodegradable waste to landfill and thereby to reduce both greenhouse gas emissions and the carbon dioxide footprint arising from the conventional disposal of municipal waste.

Managing climate change uncertainty in civil engineering design

  • London
  • Institution of Civil Engineers

  • The operating life of much new infrastructure will extend beyond 2050, into a period when the climate is projected to change substantially from current conditions. However, there is uncertainty over the nature and scale of the changes. How can today’s civil engineering designs respond to uncertain impacts several decades away? This seminar will address the challenge.
