From Strategy to Action: Sustainability Strategies #2
In July 2019 a number of members gathered to share and learn about developing a successful sustainability strategy. This follow on event will support those still putting together their strategies, but will also look at how we embed these across an organisation and ensure that we can start to deliver their objectives.

Embedding your sustainability strategy:

CCC Calls for UK’s ‘Stewards of the Land’ to Drive Emissions Reductions in order to meet Net Zero
A report published today by the Climate Change Committee gives its first ever in-depth advice on the transformative UK agricultural and land use practices required to deliver on the UK Government’s Net Zero 2050 target.
