Meeting the terms of the Climate Change Act (UK 2008) is a pressing task. For the UK to reach net zero by 2050 we must reduce emissions by 50% by 2030; this means a reduction of between 5% and 8% per year if we’re to safeguard against tipping points and ecological collapse.
Reducing your carbon emissions and waste defines the future-friendly business. With Blue Patch’s LET’S DO NET ZERO course you can participate in a way that fits your time scale and is enjoyable too.
