To whom it may concern:

I manage a talk series at the Royal Geographical Society in London, called 21st Century Challenges. It is a not-for-profit discussion series that aims to engage a broad audience in the big issues we are likely to face in the coming years.

The next event in our series is a public event on 13 October on the topic of ‘Plastic pollution in the oceans and re-evaluating waste as a resource’.

Speakers
David de Rothschild Founder of The Plastiki Expedition
Peter Davis, Director-General of the British Plastics Federation
Dr Simon Boxall, National Oceanography Centre

Chaired by David Shukman, BBC science and environment correspondent

Full details: http://www.21stcenturychallenges.org/focus/meet-our-panel3/

As we have a limited budget for marketing events in the series, we rely on spreading word out into appropriate networks that we feel would be interested in attending. I thought you may be able to disseminate details to people in your organisation who may be interested?

Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like to discuss this event or the series further.

All the best
