Keeping global warming to 1.5 degrees will require a rapid acceleration in the pace of climate action. This event will discuss the wealth of business opportunities involved in the transition to net zero in a conversation with Dr Emily Shuckburgh, Director of Cambridge Zero at Cambridge University, and Simon Carter, CEO of British Land.

In collaboration with Deloitte, this event with Nigel Topping, High-Level Champion for Climate Action at COP26, will reflect on the key outcomes of COP26 and how they will impact boards and senior business leaders in the years to come.

This case study will focus on driving transformational climate action across this diverse and complex entity. The National Trust is as big and complex as many FTSE 250 companies. In 2019, it set an ambitious target of transforming its estates and operations to achieve net zero emissions by 2030. Find out what progress has been made so far and the challenges involved.

In collaboration with Deloitte, we will discuss how organisations can navigate the voluntary carbon markets, by exploring the existing marketplace and forthcoming structural changes.
