With 2 weeks to go until Geographers descend upon London for the annual RGS-IBG Conference, it's time to start thinking about what sessions to attend. The conference theme this year is Climate Changed Geographies meaning there's a wealth of really interesting sessions for energy geographers!
To help plan your conference experience, EnGRG have developed an 'Energy Geographers Guide to the Conference'!
Sessions that are sponsored by the EnGRG are marked with an *.
