Episode 2: Becoming a Net-Zero Carbon Business (with Charlotte Gregory)

What exactly is net-zero carbon? And what will it take for our economies and businesses to make such ambitious environmental targets a reality in the face of climate change?
In this episode, we talk to senior sustainability professional, Charlotte Gregory, about what ‘net-zero’ means and look at the strategies being deployed by forward-thinking and socially responsible organisations who hope to achieve the milestone within the next decade.
Charlotte specifically discusses SMS’s ‘Net-Zero 2030’ programme and how the phased rollout of business-wide green technologies and energy efficiency measures will be key to reaching the goal.
