IEMA’s brand new membership magazine launches today following a year-long plan to deliver a totally new and unique publication to support IEMA members’ transformative work.
Issue 1 of Transform, the title for Environment and Sustainability Professionals, has been completely formed by member feedback and input. As set by members, the overarching editorial direction for the magazine is to provide interesting, relevant and challenging news, features and articles across key environment and sustainability themes. The content will be inspiring with a practical undertone that helps members to learn, develop and implement change in their organisations. The interviews will be bold and provocative, the debates will take on challenging issues and several areas will profile and celebrate members’ work and achievements.
Transform, which will be published 10 times per year and replaces IEMA’s previous title the environmentalist, will continue to deliver essential news and updates on key legislation and regulations and case studies of pioneering practice around the world. It will also offer thought pieces, policy insights and stunning photography that provides regular food for thought.
Highlights from Issue 1 include:
- Legal brief - Regulations, consultations and court news including fine for Yorkshire Water
- In focus - Drama in Antarctica as a huge iceberg breaks away from the Larsen C ice shelf
