techUK is partnering with the BSI to run a webinar on the newly published ISO Net Zero Guidelines, taking place on March 9th at 14:00.
In this session we will hear from Emily Faint, Net Zero Policy Manager at the BSI, on the content of the new ISO guidance, with some tips on implementation into existing governance.
This webinar would be valuable for businesses interested in:
- Supply Chain Emission Management,
- Risk Mapping and,
- Avoided Emissions (Scope 4)
About the ISO Net Zero Guidelines
A tool for policy makers and all who work towards net zero greenhouse gas emissions for their business, group or country.
Launched at COP27, the Net Zero Guidelines tackle a major roadblock for a world where greenhouse gas emissions are reduced to the minimum and balanced by removals: the fragmented net zero governance landscape. Competing approaches and concepts for "Net Zero" sow confusion. The Guidelines provide a common reference for collective efforts, offering a global basis for harmonizing, understanding, and planning for net zero for actors at the state, regional, city and organizational level.
The Net Zero Guidelines set a common path for:
- the definition of “net zero” and related terms (greenhouse gas removals, offsetting, value chain, etc), clarifying the differences in scope between direct emissions, indirect emissions from purchased energy, and other indirect emissions arising from an organization’s activities
- high-level principles for all actors who want to achieve climate neutrality,
- actionable guidance on getting there as soon as possible, by 2050 at the very latest, and
- transparent communication, credible claims, and consistent reporting on emissions, reductions and removals.
techUK – Committed to Climate Action
By 2030, digital technology can cut global emissions by 15%. Cloud computing, 5G, AI and IoT have the potential to support dramatic reductions in carbon emissions in sectors such as transport, agriculture, and manufacturing. techUK is working to foster the right policy framework and leadership so we can all play our part.
