Description

In this episode, we discuss what businesses that belong to the financial sector can do to limit their emissions to ensure global heating does not exceed 1.5C. In this episode, we feature Grant Thornton – the first accountancy firm in the world to set Science Based Targets – as a case study to demonstrate what can be achieved. Karen Higgens, their Head of Sustainability, talks us through their journey, highlights their successes and advises how they overcame their challenges as an organisation. Also featured in this episode is our in-house expert and climate strategist, Emma Littlewood, who shares her insider knowledge and includes a number of valuable signposts to help organisations get started on their sustainability journey with confidence and integrity.
