What can we expect from your contribution at the 2022 Sustainability Leaders Forum?

How to engage the board on the importance of sustainability leadership.

In your opinion, what should be at the top of the sustainability agenda for businesses in 2022?

Verification of carbon reporting data; loads of hype about net zero carbon when we are yet to have a system that mandates companies to have their data verified by a third party. Hence, companies could be basing their NZC claim on fluff.

What key policy decisions, business opportunities and desired outcomes are you hoping to see come from COP26?

Quality and reliability of carbon data.

Why do you think that the Edie Sustainability Leaders Forum is an important meeting?

A platform to share and discuss sustainability issues and come up with actions to move forward.
