Description
- The 2021 IPCC report has issued its starkest warning yet; unless we dramatically reduces our consumption habits and associated carbon emissions with immediate effect, we can expect increasingly unpredictable and destructive weather patterns that will threaten global stability, and ultimately life on Earth.
- Data from COP26 reinforces this.
- Governments are moving too slowly in their efforts to legislate towards zero carbon economies. Citizens now look to organisations to lead the transformation towards a net-zero world.
- Both B2B and B2C purchasing decisions increasingly factor in the carbon position of the vendor.
- Organisations taking visibly proactive steps to reduce carbon emissions are cementing brand loyalty.
- This extends to employer brand – todays jobseekers increasingly prioritise organisational sustainability when making career choices.
This is for you if:
- Your organisation operates within the knowledge economy
- You're an ambitious leader who’s recognised that a proactive response to the climate crisis is key to organisational resilience and who wants to understand more about the role business can play in addressing the challenges we face
- You understand the imperative for a transition to a green economy, but aren’t sure where to get started with reducing your organisation’s carbon footprint
Description
- The 2021 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report has issued its starkest warning yet; unless mankind dramatically reduces its consumption habits and associated carbon emissions, we can expect increasingly unpredictable and destructive weather patterns that will threaten global stability, and potentially life on Earth.
- To stay within the 1.5°C warming limit set by climate scientists as the least worst-case scenario, we must all radically reduce our consumption habits with immediate effect.
- The rapid transition to a net-zero carbon economy is now an imperative for the future of civilisation
- With governments slow to mandate towards zero carbon, citizens are increasingly looking to organisations to step up and lead this transformation. Both B2B and B2C purchasing decisions increasingly factor in the perceived carbon position of the vendor.
- Those organisations demonstrating carbon transparency and taking proactive steps to reduce carbon emissions are already accelerating brand loyalty.
- This extends to 21st Century employer brand, where jobseekers consider a far wider range of factors when considering career opportunities than ever before.
