The LowCVP's fourth annual conference on June 28th will feature a high profile line-up of speakers - including Transport Secretary Douglas Alexander - and will focus on some of the key, current issues in the battle to reduce the climate change impacts of road transport.

The conference, which takes place in central London,  will discuss whether regulation can help deliver low carbon car targets and the pros and cons of biofuels amongst other high profile issues. An important focus will be on the power of marketing to deliver carbon cuts and the conference will feature the winning entries to the Cars NOT Carbon competition which aims to promote greener motoring marketing. Delegates will also be the first to learn the results of the largest survey of the opinons of the LowCVP's 250+ stakeholder organisations.

* Cutting carbon - is regulation the way forward for road transport?
* 'Greener' motoring marketing - how it can cut road transport's carbon footprint
* BIG debates - 'Can regulation cut road transport carbon?' plus 'Biofuels: more good than harm?'
