Activating Net Zero
Many corporations, cities, municipalities and governments have joined the race to reduce carbon and greenhouse gas emissions, achieving Net Zero by 2050.
But what is Net Zero?
Listen to Anthesis’ Director, Tobias Parker, explain the fundamentals of Net Zero.
Through our Activating Net Zero podcast series, we explore – in bitesize episodes – what this means and how organisations can break this down into manageable actions, of avoiding, reducing, investing and innovating.
The Path to Net Zero
Avoiding Carbon Emissions with Science-Based Targets
The best way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is to avoid them in the first place through better design and smarter decision-making.
We explore how corporations, cities and governments are moving towards Net Zero using information incorporating Science Based Targets in strategy.
Reducing greenhouse gases using renewables and smart design
Energy efficiency and renewable energy form big parts of any organisation’s Net Zero strategy. But heat and embodied carbon in materials are two aspects of Scopes 1, 2 & 3 greenhouse gases that can be challenging to overcome. I
Reduce: Part 1
In this episode, we speak to Alexandre Lemille, Joint Managing Director of Anthesis France, as we look at new trends that are emerging for low carbon heat, and explore the increasing importance of circularity in avoiding and reducing emissions by being smarter in the design process.
Reduce: Part 2
In this episode, our host Tobias Parker talks about the new trends that are emerging for low carbon heat.
Investing to remove carbon elsewhere within your value chain
It is increasingly recognised that organisations are likely to continue to emit residual emissions from operations and their supply chains. But to achieve a Net Zero position, action must be taken which balances this out through off-site mechanisms through removing or avoiding emissions elsewhere.
Invest: Part 1
In this episode, our host Tobias Parker takes a look at the roles of Virtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs).
Invest: Part 2
In this episode, our host Tobias Parker talks with Nadège Trocellier, Anthesis Lavola Climate Change Manager, about insetting and offsetting carbon emissions as investment vehicles for reducing risk, and improving value chain performance.
Innovate by introducing new methods and technologies to cut emissions
Innovation has provided much of technology and expertise we have to deal with much of the emissions, if applied correctly. However, with more of the world’s investors realising the risk and opportunity associated with building a Net Zero economy, we look at new ways of bridging the gap.
Innovate: Part 1
In discussion with Anthesis’ Chief Sustainability Officer Paul Crewe, we look at the role that Anthesis plays in bringing new ways of thinking and ground-breaking technologies to the market.
Innovate: Part 2
In discussion with Anthesis CEO Stuart McLachlan, we look at the role Anthesis is playing in bringing new ways of thinking and ground-breaking technologies to the market.
