Simon and Jim present at first annual GWR Research Symposium

Professor Jim Longhurst and PhD student Simon Baldwin gave presentations to a large audience at 'Future Imperfect': the first annual Great Western Research Symposium. Simon presented in the Sustainability Workshop on the opportunities and barriers to the 'Integration of air quality and climate change at a regional and local governance level'.  He also presented a poster on the same subject during the lunchtime interval.  Jim, speaking in the main Plenary Session, had the slightly more challenging task of discussing 'Major environmental challenges and responses' in which he examined some of the major environmental issues of current and future generations.
