Zac Goldsmith MP will host an Environment Event, open to all.
The event is aimed at people who live or work in SW London who want to help make our air cleaner and reduce the use of plastic. Everyone who attends will have the chance to take part in discussions about how we can play our part in making change happen.
Questions to be addressed:
- Air quality. What policies should we enact in our area to reduce harmful pollutants?
- Plastics. What policies should we enact in our area to reduce the amount of plastic waste and increase recycling?
- Harnessing Market Mechanisms and Regulation.In what ways should the Government (National and Local) harness market mechanisms and regulation—from auctions and subsidies, to taxes and bans—to support best practice and to encourage greater investment in environmentally-friendly goods and services?
- Who pays? How might specific proposals be paid for?
