CLIMATE NEWS - 01/10/2022
Green growth?, ocean cleanups, river rewillding... summing up this week's biggest climate news so you don't have to 👇
P.s. we thought we’d leave out Truss sinking the economy as it’s hard to have missed. But her latest environmental policies are coming under a pretty unprecedented level of criticism from the National Trust, WWF, RSPB, Wildlife Trust and many more. This ‘attack on nature’ is certainly worth knowing about.
NET ZERO FOR BUSINESSES - what it means and what you should do
Net Zero means that the greenhouse gases that you produce (carbon dioxide, methane and the like) do not exceed the amount you remove from the atmosphere. This means that your business makes no ‘net’ contribution to climate change, because all your emissions have either been reduced or compensated for elsewhere.
RENEWABLE ENERGY - how to pick a genuinely green electricity tariff
The provider you go with is a really important question, but actually quite a complicated one because there's a lot of confusion about suppliers/tariffs that are genuinely green, and those that are simply marketed as green (otherwise known as 'greenwashing'). Below is some context on this distinction and then a couple of recommendations of suppliers to look at.
1. Firstly, it's not strictly possible to get your energy supply from the National Grid and for that supply to be 100% renewable. The only way to ensure that only 100% renewable energy is supplied to your business is to connect directly from a generator (e.g. install your own solar panels).
