The Net Zero Challenge: The Finance Departments role in driving change to support Sustainable Development Goals.
Join us for an exclusive roundtable and networking session, as we discuss key topics around sustainability, the implications on finance and the impact on global businesses.
With the COP26 global climate conference recently taking place, the focus on climate change, carbon reduction and emissions have never been more front and centre. What steps is your business taking to meet the nation’s target of being net-zero by the year 2050?
To make this a reality, many business leaders, and organisations, must start making changes and reducing their carbon footprint significantly by 2030. As staff return to business travel and daily commuting, how will your business balance Scope 3 carbon reductions Vs return to pre-pandemic travelling? What are the legal requirements to report and how are others around you interpreting those today?
Let’s discuss as peers:
- Who owns the responsibility to drive climate change within your business: Chief Financial Officer or Chief Sustainability Officer and who sets the reporting benchmark now and future targets?
- Which standards do you use to set and measure against?
- How do we gain momentum and do the simple things first?
