Why Net Zero Matters
Net zero refers to balancing greenhouse gases entering the atmosphere with those being removed. For CO2 especially, this balance is crucial as it’s the point at which global warming stops. But where does your business begin? How do you determine what’s right for your organisation? And how do you tackle complex challenges like supply chains and product lifecycles? That’s precisely where this course comes in.
