SUMMARY:Sustainable Materials -  with both eyes open - Dr Julian Allwood (
 Cambridge University Engineering Department)
DTSTART:20120201T180000Z
DTEND:20120201T193000Z
UID:TALK35010@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Dr Dick Fenner
DESCRIPTION:The world target is to reduce industry's carbon emissions by 5
 0% by 2050. However\, projections are that world demand for materials will
  DOUBLE by 2050\, so to meet our emissions target\, we have to achieve a 4
 -fold reduction in emissions per unit of material used. Dr Julian Allwood 
 will present  a practical\, evidence based  vision for change based on sci
 entific detail.  His lecture will not be about climate change -- but about
  using materials wisely\, and getting more for less.\n\nJulian Allwood is 
 a Reader in Engineering at the University of Cambridge where he leads the 
 Low Carbon Materials Processing research group and is a fellow of Gonville
  and Caius College. He worked for 10 years for the aluminium industry and 
 currently holds an EPSRC Leadership Fellowship which funds the WellMet2050
  project. He is a lead author for the 5th Assessment Report of the Intergo
 vernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
