Insightful discussion on the sector's shift to a #CircularEconomy with a clear message about the urgency to accelerate efforts towards #NetZero and the #decarbonisation of the sector. Our thanks to our chair and panelists for such a stimulating discussion at #AllEnergy24 today.
'The sector will require extensive quantities of material to transition to net zero. By applying circular principles to these material supply chains we can create #decarbonisation pathways that contribute to a more sustainable energy development.' Kenny Taylor at #AllEnergy24
'The Net Zero Standard addresses the energy performance gap and ensures the pursuit of reduced carbon emissions is balanced with the place principle and indoor environmental qualities to ensure buildings support comfort, wellbeing and productivity.' Nick Ribbons at #AllEnergy24
We got GOLD! We are proud to have been awarded the Gold We Invest in Wellbeing accreditation from Investors in People for all our efforts in leading, supporting and improving a culture of wellbeing here at Zero Waste Scotland.
