The Centre for Environment and Sustainability (CES) is delighted to invite you to join us at the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK for the Annual Roland Clift Lecture which is presented this year by Prof Roland Geyer, known internationally for his work quantifying plastic waste. His work has been picked up by public figures, including David Attenborough, and has opened up public awareness of the global plastics problem – Roland is also our very own Alumnus.
