Webinar Description:

Setting a net zero target is relatively easy

Putting a transition plan into action? Not so much.

The initial enthusiasm for setting net zero goals and tackling the climate challenge is often lost when businesses are asked to detail how they are going to achieve their plans; or show how transition plans are successfully being implemented.

This is unsurprising as the challenges are many: from being unable to integrate net zero plans with core business operations to a lack of buy-in at the company board level or access to the investment needed to meet emissions goals.

BusinessGreen’s latest webinar, hosted in association with Verco, aims to explore the steps you need to take to reach your net zero goals, and the unforeseen challenges that could undermine your efforts.

Featuring a panel of experts, this interactive webinar will offer valuable insight into how to define and design a robust programme for achieving a successful net zero transition, how to organise the business case for real world climate action and how to apply an effective net zero strategy across your organisation’s real estate.

Panellists will also provide tips on the best practices that can enhance your net zero strategy, unlock multiple benefits, and ensure your buildings and assets are fit for purpose in a decarbonising economy.
