Synopsis:
In 2017, experts identified six key milestones – across energy, transport, land use, industry, infrastructure, and finance – that mankind must hit by 2020 in order to get a grip on global warming once and for all. They called this the ‘climate turning point’.
While positive progress has been made towards many of these milestones, action across the board remains broadly insufficient to reverse climate change and tackle key critical environmental and social sustainability issues. But all hope is not lost. In fact, there remains a huge, transformational opportunity for businesses to achieve a sustainable and profitable future.
This webinar, brought to you in association with EDF Energy, heard from the sustainability and energy leaders who are taking bold action to accelerate change in their organisations and beyond – with a specific focus on carbon reduction and achieving a circular economy.
Discussion points:
- Moving towards ‘zero’ carbon for your buildings and operations
- Advancing the circular economy
- Embedding sustainability and social purpose throughout your business
The webinar is free to watch.
