Challenges&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Stockholm (2010-09-01) - About 2,500 leading experts, practitioners, decision
makers and business innovators will meet at the World Water Week in Stockholm,
September 5-11, 2010, to discuss the world’s escalating water problems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The focus this year is set on tackling the water quality challenge, which
affects the health of humans and ecosystems. Other related issues gaining
momentum include: urbanisation, food and global security, climate change
adaptation, and the human rights to water access and sanitation.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The World Water Week in Stockholm and the prestigious Stockholm Water Prize are
celebrating their 20th anniversary this year. The 2010 Stockholm Water Prize is
presented to Dr. Rita R. Colwell of the University of Maryland and John Hopkins
University’s Bloomberg School of Public Health, USA, for her research on
waterborne diseases which has helped save millions of lives. Other honours
presented this year include the Stockholm Junior Water Prize, the Stockholm
Industry Water Award and the Swedish Baltic Sea Water Award.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The World Water Week is a global forum to review progress, build capacities and
promote partnerships on international processes on issues related to water and
development. More than 20 ministers including the Swedish Minister for
International Development Cooperation Gunilla Carlsson are joined by leading
experts in Stockholm to address these issues.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The conference takes place at the Stockholm International Fairs, between the

      <title>SUSTAINABLE LANDFILLING (23 Sep 2010)</title>
      <description>Dear Colleague, &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In many countries waste management is experiencing a fast transition from landfilling to sophisticated recycling and waste to energy plants. Thus, the question arises: Is there still a need for landfilling in the future, and if yes, how should landfills be designed and operated in order to become sustainable?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In order to discuss current research related to the question above, Helsinki University of Technology - Lahti Center and Vienna University of Technology are jointly organizing an international conference in Vienna on September 23-25, 2010 on sustainable landfilling.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please see the details in the First announcement and Call for Abstracts (&lt;a href="http://www.iwa.tuwien.ac.at/landfill-conference/announcement.pdf" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.iwa.tuwien.ac.at/landfill-conference/announcement.pdf&lt;/a&gt;). The deadline for abstract submission is November 30, 2009.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We would enjoy welcoming you in Vienna and are looking forward to receive your abstracts. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Best regards &lt;br&gt;Johann Fellner &lt;br&gt;Paul H.

      <description>The fifth biannual ECANUSA conference is on the way for October 14-16, 2010, and we invite you to submit scientific papers and posters for presentation. ECANUSA focuses on scientific and practical issues of sustainable management and utilization of the forests and the environment of eastern Canada and the USA. We expect a wide variety of papers addressing, among others, the following themes:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Wood products and forest operations /engineering&lt;br&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Silviculture &amp;amp; Forest production&lt;br&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Forest ecology, physiology, soils and carbon, genetics&lt;br&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Forest policy and socio-economic concerns&lt;br&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Forest planning, modeling and information systems&lt;br&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Natural disturbance regimes&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Communications may be made either as an oral presentation or a poster. Standard oral presentations will be organized with a series of parallel technical sessions, with themes determined once submissions have been received.

      <title>ERSCP-EMSU 2010 Conference (25 Oct 2010)</title>
      <description>3D. Industrial ecology, symbiosis, eco-industrial parks and resource recovery.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Industrial symbiosis draws its conceptual foundation from the ecological metaphor of biological symbiosis. Companies engaged in industrial symbiosis can be co-located in an eco-industrial park or distributed across a city or region. Industrial symbiosis offers potential environmental and economic efficiencies that have attracted policy and business interest across the world, both in terms of industrial transformation and of regional sustainability. In this area, resource recovery is also relevant and includes urban and landfill mining. This track invites state-of-the-art conceptual and methodological studies, as well as case studies.

      <title>TBLI CONFERENCE EUROPE 2010 (11 Nov 2010)</title>
      <description>CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS AND/OR SPONSORS&lt;br&gt;CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS AND/OR SPONSORS&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We are now accepting presentation proposals for TBLI CONFERENCE EUROPE 2010, to be held November 11-12 in London, UK at the Grange St. Paul's Hotel*****.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;TBLI CONFERENCE is the largest comprehensive annual global learning and networking event on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Investment in Europe and Asia.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Proposals should be received by August 1st, 2010 to be considered for the preferred Workshop of your first choice. We anticipate an even larger number of submissions as in previous years, so kindly respond as soon as possible. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please click on http://www.tbliconference.com/submit-europe2010.html to submit your presentation title, introductory text, short biography and photo. These are essential minimal requirements for your submission to be taken into serious consideration - and will give us the possibility to immediately upload your entry on our website. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Kindly note that your title and texts can be edited until one week previous to the conference, but we need minimal information for our and your website program.&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;For all queries and information kindly email to europe2010@tbli.org.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Presentation Criteria, Rules and Benefits&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;- Presentations are eligible only if their expertise fits within the ESG and SRI parameters and offers new or interesting, challenging insights;&lt;br&gt;- Presentation submissions must include name, full contact details, the organization or company represented (if any), and be received via our online submission link;&lt;br&gt;- Presentations are not to exceed 20 minutes' duration;&lt;br&gt;- a typical Workshop session includes 3 presentations and 40 minutes Q&amp;amp;A; &lt;br&gt;in case of very high interest the format may changee to 4 presentations and 20 minutes Q&amp;amp;A;&lt;br&gt;- Speaker registration is considered final as soon as the (25% discounted) registration fee has been paid and/or Sponsorship fee has been received. In case of Sponsorship, earlier Speaker registration may become part of the Sponsorship Package and fees paid in advance will be refunded; &lt;br&gt;- Speakers are given free access to the Grand Dinner (Invitation Only) at the Grange St. Paul's Hotel ***** and receive a 50% discount for a colleague to attend the conference, request preferential networking opportunities and be automatically invited to TBLI side-events;&lt;br&gt;- Speakers must agree to submit a near-final version of their presentation no later than October 1st, 2010, so that Moderators may prepare;&lt;br&gt;- Speakers are to bring the final version of their presentation to their workshop (preferably on a USB stick) and the final presentation becomes part of the TBLI website presentation database immediately after the conference;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;- Presentations which come across as sales pitches or which cater to a restricted political, religious or activist view without room for questioning or discussion will not qualify;&lt;br&gt;- Registration and payment must be completed as soon as possible after official invitation, but at the very last three (3) weeks in advance of the conference opening date. Failure to comply may result in exclusion from the conference program;&lt;br&gt;- TBLI does not cover travel costs and any other expenses incurred;&lt;br&gt;- TBLI complies with strict Dutch privacy law regulations and will never disclose contact information to third parties for commercial purposes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sponsorship&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Premium, Lead and Supporting sponsors are usually given guaranteed speaking slots. Sponsorship Agreements and Speaker slots are not automatically linked: we have Sponsors who value the opportunity to be represented by a Speaker and we very much welcome Speakers not endorsed by a Sponsor who participate on the merit of their ESG expertise, tangible results and/or innovative vision. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you are unable to sponsor, this does never mean you are not eligible to speak. Conversely, this does not mean that those who sponsor can present whatever they wish. New insights and high quality are and will remain our prime concern.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In case you would like to be a (corporate) Sponsor for TBLI CONFERENCE EUROPE 2010, please click http://www.tbliconference.com/tbli-europe-2010/sponsorpackages.html and send an email or contact me directly.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Kind regards,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Frank Stevens&lt;br&gt;Conference Manager&lt;br&gt;TBLI CONFERENCE&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mark the date/location:&lt;br&gt;TBLI CONFERENCE EUROPE 2010 &lt;br&gt;NOVEMBER 11-12, 2010 &lt;br&gt;Grange St. Paul's Hotel*****&lt;br&gt;LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM &lt;br&gt;www.tbliconference.com&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Subscribe to our infolist http://tbli.org/updates&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Next upcoming dates/locations:&lt;br&gt;TBLI CONFERENCE ASIA 2011 &lt;br&gt;MAY 26-27, 2011 &lt;br&gt;TBA&lt;br&gt;TOKYO, JAPAN&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;TBLI CONFERENCE EUROPE 2011 &lt;br&gt;NOVEMBER 10-11, 2011 &lt;br&gt;Grange St. Paul's Hotel*****&lt;br&gt;LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Stadionplein 65hs &lt;br&gt;NL-1076 CJ Amsterdam&lt;br&gt;The Netherlands&lt;br&gt;T +31(0)20 428 6752 &lt;br&gt;F +31 (0)20 428 6753 &lt;br&gt;E&amp;nbsp; frank@tbli.org&lt;br&gt;W www.tbliconference.com&lt;br&gt;</description>

      <title>CUTE Final Conference (17 Nov 2010)</title>
      <description>&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hamburg-messe.de/H2Expo/h2_e-news/e_news.htm" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="/Content/Pictures/Picture.ashx?PicId=169588" title="H2Expo_head_enews_e.jpg" alt="H2Expo_head_enews_e.jpg" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If this newsletter is not displayed properly please view the &lt;a href="http://www.hamburg-messe.de/H2Expo/h2_e-news/e_news.htm" target="_blank"&gt;online version&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;font color="#00519e" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;h2 align="justify"&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;Hydrogen 
							Transports! &lt;br&gt;
							Clean Public Transport Buses are Here and Now!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color="#00519e" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
							&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;
							&lt;font size="2"&gt;From hot and dry in Madrid to cold 
							and humid in Reykjavik, from flat in Hamburg to 
							hilly in Luxembourg, and from congested in Berlin to 
							full speed in Perth (Western Australia). The 
							HyFLEET:CUTE buses have shown that clean public 
							transport powered by hydrogen works. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
							&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;font color="#00519e" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;
							
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
							&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt;"&gt;
							From 2006 to 2009 there have been 47 buses operated 
							under an extremely wide range of climatic and 
							topographical conditions. In total 2.5 million 
							kilometers have been travelled and more than 8.5 
							million passengers transported safely. &lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							Within the HyFLEET:CUTE project, a Fuel Cell bus 
							fleet of 33 Mercedes-Benz Citaro buses was operated 
							in public transport in 10 cities on three continents. 
							There were no major breakdowns or problems caused by 
							either the fuel cell technology and their components, 
							or of the buses themselves.&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							MAN Nutzfahrzeuge AG (MAN) developed 14 buses based 
							around the standard low floor MAN Lion’s City Bus 
							model powered by two different hydrogen Internal 
							Combustion Engine (ICE) technologies for operation 
							in regular public transport service in Berlin. The 
							naturally aspirated engines in particular have 
							proved their operational readiness.&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							At the HyFLEET:CUTE final conference bus operators 
							and industry partners will give results of their 
							work in answer to many key questions: What were the 
							performance parameters of the buses? What were the 
							main technical problems during the operation? And 
							what was their availability and reliability?&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							And the biggest question of all: When are we likely 
							to see hydrogen buses commercially available?&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							The new generation of the Mercedes-Benz 
							Fuel-CELL-Hybrid will be presented at the conference 
							and will take passengers on test drives. First 
							testing of the prototype has already showed further 
							improvements: up to 50 % efficiency improvement, 
							very low noise and a simplified maintenance and 
							service concept with reduced operating costs. The 
							zero-emission bus has been awarded the Gold f-cell 
							Award.&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							MAN will also have their ICE Bus there for test 
							drives.&lt;br&gt;
							&lt;br&gt;
							For more answers join the HyFLEET:CUTE Final 
							Conference in Hamburg, Germany on Tuesday, 17th &amp;amp; 
							Wednesday 18th November 2009. &lt;br&gt;
