2 ACI s European Environmental Ports Conference intends to follow on from the success of our inaugural 2017 edition. For, we are returning to Antwerp on the 16th & 17th. Through extensive industry research and the aid of our Agenda Committee Members, we have attained a great insight into the port industry and its environmental concerns. The conference will examine the most pressing matters within the port industry such as: air quality, waste management, keeping up with compliance, improving relationships with the local area, onshore power supply and water quality. Moreover, the two day event will hear from cruise liner s on their environmental output, alternative ideas and approaches from ports around Europe. There will also be a discussion between stakeholders focusing on cooperation from all areas of the port industry, assessing what can be done to improve the environment within ports in the long term. Maintaining Compliance and Keeping up with Environmental Legislation Tackling the Issue of Air Quality and Working Towards a Genuine Solution Onshore Power Supply: A Potential Solution to Pollution? Improving Relationships with the Local Area Key Practices in Removing Waste from Ports Cruise Liner s Perspective: How the Cruise Industry is Improving Environmentally Water Quality in Ports Alternative Approaches and Ideas to Make Ports Greener Environmental Strategies and Implementations Across all Sectors to Improve The Environment in Ports All ACI s events attract a targeted group of senior level executives and decision-makers from the industry.
