Join the Engineering New Zealand Auckland Branch for an exclusive breakfast event on how engineers can influence emissions across the infrastructure value chain. This is a unique opportunity to support urgent action toward a low-emissions, climate-resilient future.
SCHEDULE
6.45 – 7.15: Breakfast (provided) and networking
7.15 – 8.00: Speakers
8.00 – 8.30: Panel discussion with all speakers
Hosted by Brendon Harkness, Head of Sustainability and Innovation at Watercare Services, the event will feature presentations from leading experts.
Professor Jonathan Cullen (University of Cambridge)
Jonathan leads the Resource Efficiency Collective and has a reputation for top-down studies of resource systems, bringing skills in developing new metrics to reflect both energy and emissions consequences of materials production.
Jonathan studied Chemical and Process Engineering at Canterbury University, NZ, worked for 10 years in industry, before studying for an MPhil and PhD at the University of Cambridge, UK. Jonathan's research interests span energy and material systems, efficiency limits, circularity and zero carbon transition pathways. He led the project C-THRU: carbon clarity in the global petrochemical supply chain and is the Cambridge lead on CCG: Climate Compatible Growth.
We are also privileged to have Chris Johnstone from Holcim New Zealand who will represent the Aotearoa New Zealand Concrete Industry Net-Zero Carbon Roadmap and Ilka Loubser (Fulton Hogan) joining us for the panel discussion, giving you the chance to ask questions and engage in an insightful conversation.
The event is kindly sponsored by Watercare Services.
Engineers have a unique opportunity to influence emissions across the infrastructure value chain and support urgent action toward a low-emissions, climate-resilient future. This includes both the upstream and downstream emissions impacts of built infrastructure.
