The emergence of increased environmental legislation is set to be one of the defining business issues of the next five years as governments the world over seek to develop the regulatory framework that can underpin the transition to a low carbon economy.

Carbon trading, emission caps, tighter standards on new product designs, greenhouse gas reporting rules and carbon taxes are all either on the political agenda or already on their way and the businesses that are best prepared for the legislative changes will be best positioned to prosper.

But what exactly can firms expect, how should they prepare, and how do they ensure they have the right processes and IT systems in place to ensure compliance with the new rules?

In this BusinessGreen.com web seminar, in association with IBM, we look at the practical steps IT departments can take to ensure they are not only ready to comply with forthcoming green legislation but are poised to take advantage of the new rules by cutting both costs and carbon emissions.

Experts from across the green business movement will examine the specific green regulations that are in the pipeline and will offer advice on how to comply, how to make the most of the opportunities new rules present and which technologies and processes can help ease the regulatory burden.
