Seoul to Host Environmental Summit in 2010

Korea is set to host the Business for Environment Global Summit (B4E) in conjunction with the Champions of the Earth Award next spring in Seoul to coincide with Earth Day on Apr. 22.

Business leaders from around the world will gather in the Korean capital for the annual meeting aimed at promoting dialogue and business-driven action toward a green global economy, B4E organizers said on Monday.

The 2010 B4E conference will be the first environment-related global summit to follow the UN Climate Change Conference currently being held in Copenhagen, Denmark.
