On the 2nd and 3rd of March, 500 students from across Birmingham and Solihull attended Your Green Future, an interactive event which set out to inspire and inform the next generation about the opportunities on offer in ‘green’ industries.
Students worked alongside businesses in a range of workshops and had the chance speak to local and national organisations offering jobs in the sustainability sector. The workshops involved students becoming ‘green’ dragons in the Dragons Den, energy planners locating renewables in Snowdonia National Park and sustainable product designers. The event was managed by Severn Wye Energy Agency and supported by Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council and Birmingham City Council.
