The meeting, which will be presided over by WBA President David Newman and opened by Ancitel President Filippo Bernocchi, will be an open discussion with members on the activities in course and planned over 2018. Included among these are the report which WBA is now finalising with the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Initiative and the Environmental Protection Agency of the USA, called Urban Food Waste Management. This is practical guide to cities across the globe on how to prevent, collect and treat the massive amounts of food waste being produced by the world's growing population. It will be distributed globally fro May onwards.
The day will end with a visit to the Rome East waste water depurification plant of ACEA where an anaerobic digestor produces renewable energy.
