Climate Smart Engineering (CSE) is an immersive two-day engineering conference curated to delivering a line-up of powerful speakers and insightful discussions on climate smart engineering.  

Held on November 16-17, CSE will demonstrate the pivotal role of engineering in providing sustainable solutions, systems and efficiencies, which in turn provides the pathway by which business and government may avoid serious climate consequences.

This conference will enable engineers to explore the relevant risks and opportunities, to network and to hear first-hand from business, finance, government and engineering leaders. 

Engineers will be pivotal in both mitigating and adapting to the challenges posed by climate change, and the associated expectations of investors, voters, employees and the wider community. 

CSE is being held the week after the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference – a globally recognised event which is being described by US Climate Envoy John Kerry as ‘the last best chance the world has’ to act. We will use the international climate agenda as a springboard for our discussion. 

Engineers across all disciplines need to understand both the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ of mitigating and adapting to climate change, as well as how to meaningfully measure, and report on, progress. This conference will provide a platform for learning, making new connections across disciplines and sectors, and for discussing ideas. There will be opportunities to share and explore case studies and practical examples of best practice. 

Plenary speakers include former US Vice-President Al Gore, ARUP Director Fiona Cousins and Steam Plains Capital Managing Director Brett Mitsch.
