WELCOME -------
I N N O VAT I O N I N P U B L I C S E C TO R S U S TA I N A B I L I T Y
Welcome to NetZero GOVERNMENT Reaching net zero means all parts of the economy, including those that are harder to decarbonise. In some sectors, there are well-understood pathways to net zero but there is uncertainty in other sectors over how to reduce emissions. Certain areas have been identified as having a significant impact, such as building and energy, transport and waste and recycling. So to help, we have lined up experts to bring the very latest in legislation, innovation and viable solutions. Taking place over three mornings, Scope 123: NetZero GOVERNMENT hosts a gathering of sustainability experts from local and central Government and many more, who will guide you
-------
step-by-step through the maze of GHG reporting, an accounting and reporting standard which requires organisations to quantify and report their emissions. You can join us for all or any of the three days we are LIVE on-air. Using the interactive webinar platform, you can exchange ideas, discuss strategies, form alliances, and hear what matters now to get your sustainability projects to net zero on time and if you are ‘Social’, make sure you tag #NetZeroGov in your posts. Above all else, have a great morning with us and let us do the work for YOU. Enjoy the event. Rosario Surace, Assistant Event manager
