Join the Community and be personally guided to Net Zero

People are often complaining that the environmental cost of COP26 sits against what it's trying to achieve. I wanted to explore this a bit further and put some figures against it to understand what the impacts really are in terms of numbers. 

I should probably define what Net Zero is! Here's what to expect in the next few years.

One of the common hesitancies is around electric vehicles and their environmental impact. In this episode I discuss some of the issues around thinking of EV vs Petrol vehicles and how this may be leading to climate delayism.

I discuss some of the reasons why net zero is an opportunity, not a cost.

How to Write a Sustainability Policy

What is the difference?

Greenhouse gases (GHGs) keep the planet warm by trapping solar energy that would otherwise radiate through the atmosphere back out to space.

In 2020 through burning fossil fuels the UK emitted 414.1 million tonnes / CO2e into the atmosphere.

As human activity continually increases the level of atmospheric greenhouse gases, we are exacerbating the warming of global average temperatures — resulting in what’s commonly known as global warming.

What isn’t common knowledge is how we measure the carbon footprint of GHGs.

To do this, climate scientists convert the amounts of individual GHGs to a CO2e equivalent.

In this article, we will explain what CO2e is and how it’s used to understand the atmospheric warming that GHGs create.

Carbon offset schemes have become hugely popular in the past few years, with more and more technological solutions appearing. This has naturally led to a bit of confusion, and it’s hard to know which is the one to go for.

This article will outline a few arguments and issues around carbon offsetting, bust some myths and give you some recommended schemes to join.
