Electrification to Net Zero: Global macro trends explored with a case study on British Columbia’s potential
With global consensus now steadily pointing to a Net Zero target for the world by 2050, extensive electrification will become a necessity. This webinar explores the global macro trends as they relate to climate change, sustainability and low carbon technology. We will focus on a case study of British Columbia’s potential in these arenas.
With global consensus now steadily pointing to a Net Zero target for the world by 2050, extensive electrification will become a necessity. This webinar explored the global macro trends as they relate to climate change, sustainability and low carbon technology. We focussed on exploring the decision-making frameworks of politics, philosophy, economics and ecology along with a case study of British Columbia’s potential in these arenas and joined by guest Jae Mather FIEMA CEnv who was the Executive Director of Clean Energy British Columbia and wrote the Electrification of BC white paper.
This is the perfect webinar for those who are interested in the transformation of economies across the globe to the low carbon economy of our collective future.

Pledge to Net Zero - Creating the business case for fast climate action
Hosted during week 2 of COP26, this panel discussion focused on how to build a business case around taking action on climate change.
The Low Carbon Construction event hosted by the Yorkshire and Humberside regional network, looked into how building back better presents an opportunity to do things differently. In particular, it provides an opportunity to address some of the challenges presented by the decarbonisation agenda.
This webinar provided a unique first-hand briefing on this important development in the build up to COP26 and outlined progress and proposals developing through the Taskforce, along with practice informed perspectives on the potential of carbon markets both globally and for organisations.
In this webinar, we learned about the outcomes of this review, considerations identified across carbon offset and ‘compensation’ solutions, and implications of the findings for those developing their carbon offsetting programmes. The webinar focused on the context of the Environment Agency.
Now that it's been almost two years since the flurry of climate emergency declarations were made by multiple organisations across our region and as COP26 approaches, we took a look at the challenges and the opportunities that have been encountered by public sector organisations in leading climate emergency response at local level.
In this webinar, Thomas Hale from University of Oxford outlined the Oxford Principles for Net Zero Aligned Carbon Offsetting.
Our Midlands Race to Zero webinar featured speakers discussing the topic of net zero and answer questions about this very current and challenging agenda.
The second day of online delivery of Scotland’s EIA Conference saw three experienced presenters discuss their views on EIA’s progress in different aspects of climate change and nature enhancement goals.
